Abstract

A copier with a coordinated hybrid or non-sequential postcollation sorter operation is disclosed in a hybrid copying system comprising a document feeder with a document bypass loop for copying documents in desired non-linear page sequences for improved copying efficiency for duplex copying with a trayless copy sheet duplexing loop buffer path duplexing system circulating copy sheets from and back to the image transfer station of the copier to eliminate intermediate copy sheet stacking and refeeding between first and second side copying, and outputting the duplexed copy sheets therefrom in an unconventional non-directly sequential page order which is nevertheless properly collated by unconventional non-sequential sorter bin loading sequences.
