A copying machine has a microcomputer which is capable of actuating a plurality of processing components, including an automatic document feeder, a semi-automatic document feeder and a sorter, to continuously perform automatic copying with time sequence. This microcomputer has a random access memory. In the random access memory (RAM) are stored a series of programs for continuous copying specified at a keyboard by a user, that is, copying conditions such as a copying sheet number, modes of enlarged copying, reduced copying and copying of equal size, selection of an outfeed position of the sorter, selection of the automatic document feeder or the semi-automatic document feeder, and changes in paper sizes. The microcomputer controls respective components of the copying machine so as to perform continuous copying in response to the program stored in the RAM. |
