<p>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To greatly increase capacity of a sheet stacking quantity by arranging a conveying passage switching means in a branch part between first and second conveying passages and providing a housing device mounting part holding first and second storage devices, which store a sheet discharged from both conveying passages, freely removably. SOLUTION: Paper outputted from a printer 1 is received inside a relay machine 2. Conveying rollers are arranged in proper positions of first and second conveying passages 7, 8 so as to convey the paper, which is outputted from the printer 1 and received inside the relay machine 2, to a stacker 3 or 4 from a paper receiving port 16 in the relay machine 2. In a branch part between the first and second conveying passages 7, 8, a flapper 9 for sorting the paper outputted from the printer 1 to the first and second conveying passages 7, 8 is arranged. Then, either of stackers is designated, and the paper conveying direction is switched. In this way, a sheet mounting quantity of a sheet storage device can be greatly increased neither without any alteration in the sheet storage device itself nor without any deterioration of workability in rejection of the stacked sheet.</p> |
