Abstract
A copy paper counting method for a copying apparatus including the steps of: counting the copy paper by means of a first counter; terminating the feed of the copy paper when the counting value stored in the first counter becomes equal to the preset number of the copy paper; counting the discharged copy paper by means of a second counter; and detecting paper jamming, and supplying the counting value of the second counter to the counting value of the first counter. It is not necessary to preset the number of required copies again after a jammed paper is expelled. Since the copying operation is continuously restarted, the preset number of copies are precisely reproduced.
