Abstract
A sheet processing device includes a post-processing unit, a process tray, a first sensor, a second sensor, and a control unit. The post-processing unit performs post-processing on the sheet. The process tray places the sheet to be post-processed on the upper surface. The first sensor is disposed on the upper side of the process tray. The first sensor outputs a first signal corresponding to a first distance to an object which is disposed at a first position of the process tray. The second sensor is disposed on the upper side of the process tray. The second sensor outputs a second signal corresponding to a second distance to the object which is disposed at a second position on the downstream side in a sheet discharge direction from the first position of the process tray. The control unit controls the post-processing using the first signal and the second signal.
