Continuous operation of the conveyor in an inserter system is achieved by providing a lift up station (LUS) between a Document Entry Device (DED) and the next downstream Multiple Document Entry Device (MDED). A controller causes the LUS to remove documents from the conveyor when it is determined that the time, t2, required by the MDED to complete assembly of an enclosure for ejection onto the conveyor exceeds the time, t1, required by the conveyor to move the document ejected by the DED to the MDED, and subsequently causes the LUS to replace the documents onto the conveyor at a time substantially t2-t1 later. Apparatus and method are disclosed.
