Abstract

A sheet processing device in an embodiment includes a conveyance path, a stacker, a post processing section, and vertical alignment members. The conveyance path conveys sheets in a conveying direction and stacks the sheets. The stacker restricts a leading end of the conveyed sheets. The stacker is movable in the conveying direction. The post processing section processes the sheets further on an upstream side in the conveying direction than a position where the sheets are supported by the stacker. The vertical alignment members feed the sheets in the conveying direction toward the stacker. The vertical alignment members are enabled to come into contact with a bundle of the sheets supported by the stacker. The vertical alignment members are movable in the conveying direction integrally with the stacker.
