Abstract
An improved copying apparatus is provided having a control panel that can be enabled for subjectively programming of copying functions while displaying the same to the user. The user can then store his composed program in correlation with a specific code indicia. The coded indicia can then be placed on a document and inserted into the copying machine with the code indicia sensed. Upon sensing the code indicia, the prestored copier function program is enabled to provide the desired copying operation. Self-correction of magnification ratios in the program data and control of a paper sorter bin can be used with the copier apparatus.
