Recirculating feeders, operatively connected to a copier, can operate in collate or noncollate modes, i.e. produce collated or noncollated output copies. In the noncollate mode of operation, the recirculating feeder acts in a similar manner as a conventional document feeder. When an operator places only a single original document in the recirculating feeder and, mistakenly, the feeder and copier are in the collate mode of operation, the apparatus will automatically determine that there is only a single original document in the recirculating feeder and transfer the mode of operation from collate to noncollate.
