Abstract

An image reading apparatus includes a document tray, a set document sensor, a sheet feed rotary member, an image reader, a staple detector, a display panel and a controller. The set document sensor detects a document sheet set on a document tray. A staple detector detects a staple attached to the document sheet bundle. On recognizing set document sheets, based on the output from the staple detector, a controller checks whether or not the set document sheets are stapled. On detecting that they are stapled, the controller makes a display panel indicate that the document sheets are stapled and cannot be conveyed.
