Abstract
There is provided a paper sheet dispenser of the type from which several different kinds of sheet material are dispensed. The paper sheet dispenser of the invention is provided with a discriminator for comparing the total number of paper sheets to be dispensed with the upper limit number which can be dispensed at one time to develop a branch instruction that the operations be carried out according to a branch program when the former-mentioned number is not less than the upper limit number. According to the branch program, paper sheets are divided into two or more groups in such a manner that paper sheets of any one kind are never divided into two fragmental segments to avoid confusion. On the other hand, when the total number of paper sheets to be dispensed is less than the upper limit number, paper sheets of every designated kind are dispensed collectively at one time. It is possible to instruct that a single kind of paper sheet be dispensed at a time.
