PURPOSE:To detect an appropriate binding position to avoid a trouble in a misalignment state by providing a control means or the like which conducts a warning display if a judging means judges that the binding position is out of alignment. CONSTITUTION:When a staple mode is set by an input from an operation part, a staple request flag is set. At this time, if an image direction detected by maximum margin detection data is judged to disagree with the reference staple position, the staple request flag is turned off as shown in a step S281. In accordance with this flag, a copy sequence control goes from a staple mode to a normal copy operation sequence. In addition, after the ON/OFF operation of a staple mode is confirmed once, the control of second and later pages can be started from step S282. In step S282, if the operation part is in a code reception READY state, a warning display code is issued to the operation part for conducting a warning display to request the operator to confirm the binding position. |
