Abstract
An after treatment device for sorted papers comprising: a sorting unit for conducting a sorting operation, the unit comprising a plurality of bins onto which papers are distributed one after another to be sorted; a paper arrangement unit for evenly arranging edges of said papers delivered on each of the bins; an after treatment unit for applying after treatment to the papers evenly arranged on each of the bins; and a control unit for controlling the device. The device is controlled in such a way that the operating time for the after treatment in a state where the after treatment is conducted simultaneously with the sorting operation is different from the operating time for the after treatment in a state where the after treatment is conducted after the sorting operation is ended.
