PURPOSE:To make its operation easier by detecting that an original is placed on a tray and deciding the order of original placing based on the detection output and processing originals in the decided order. CONSTITUTION:When an original is set to an original feeding unit 401, the order of original copying is determined according as originals are set or not set to the other units 402 and 403. A unit number N corresponds to a RAM address N. Data in original presence/absence areas of RAM addresses 2 and 3 are checked, and 1, 2, or 3 is set to the area of order in a RAM address 1 if said data are 0 and 0, 0 and 1, or 1 and 1. That is, originals are copied in the order of setting without setting priority levels especially. Thus, the key operation for designation of the processing order is made unnecessary to improve the easiness of operation and the convenience for use. |
