PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To shorten the processing time of the whole of an image formation system including sheet postprocessing by setting the number of sheets for a sheet loading means to a prescribed number when the rest number exceeds a prescribed number and setting a number less than the number of sheets for the sheet loading means toa prescribed value when the rest number is less than the prescribed value. SOLUTION: When a copying process is started, it is judged whether or not the rest number (n), as the number of copies which are not taken yet, of the number N of necessary copies set at an operation part of a copying machine main body 201 is larger than a number (prescribed value) larger than the number of bins of one bin module B1. When it is judged that the rest number (n) is larger than the specific value, copies corresponding to the number of the bins of the bin module B1 are taken and a distributing process is performed by a different bin module B2. When the rest number (n) is less than the prescribed value, the rest number (n) is divided into the number for processing which is one cycle before and the number for final circulating processing, and the number of processing which is one cycle precedent is copied. |
