<p>PURPOSE:To increase the number of blank sheets of paper to be stored without changing the size of a paper feeding cassette for blank sheets of paper that are small in size, and to increase the efficiency of the copying operation, by providing a store section for feeding the sheets and a store section for keeping the sheets. CONSTITUTION:The paper feeding cassette 1 is formed with the paper feeding store section 2 and the keeping store section 3. In case, for example, more than 100 post cards 4 should be copied using the paper feeding cassette 1, the paper feeding store section 2 is loaded with about 100 post cards that can be stored in the section 2, and the keeping store section 3 is loaded with the remaining post cards 4. After the paper feeding cassette 1 has been mounted in the copying machine body 10, and the copying has been carried out, when all the post cards 4 in the paper feeding store section 2 are taken out, the post cards 4 in the keeping store section 3 are transferred into the paper feeding section 2 to continue the copying. During this period, the keeping store section 3 is loaded suitably with remaining post cards 4.</p> |
