A specific cassette selection apparatus for use with a copying machine having a plurality of removable paper feeding cassettes. The apparatus includes an identification device, a specific copying mode selection device, and a paper feeding cassette selection device. The cassette selection device responds to paper-size identification signals from the identification device and a copying mode selection signal from the mode selection device to select a cassette for use in a selected copying mode. When either a two-sided copying mode or a continuous copying mode is selected, the paper feeding cassette selection device selects a specific paper feeding cassette containing copying paper of only a specific paper size associated with the two-sided copying and/or the continuous copying modes.

Specific cassette selection apparatus

A display device for a copying machine, wherein when a special mode such as copying with reduction and duplex copying (copying on both surfaces of a copying paper) is selected, it is judged whether the paper feed cassette set for copying is proper for the mode selected and if so, the paper feed cassette set for copying is displayed, while if not, the applicable paper feed cassettes are displayed successively, and furthermore, the paper size stacked in the paper feed cassette is displayed regardless of whether it is in the metric size system or the inch size system.
