Abstract
An automatic sheet processing device mountable on a sorting unit of an image forming apparatus includes a sheet processor for applying a sheet processing to a sheet having a specified length and width, a moving unit capable of supporting the sheet processor for moving the sheet processor along a side of the sheet, and a controller having a storage unit for storing sheet processing data, a calculator for calculating a processing position from the sheet processing data, and a control portion for controlling the moving unit so as to move the sheet processor to the calculated processing position. The processing position is calculated from the stored sheet processing data, and the sheet processor is moved to the calculated processing position, so that sheet processing can be automatically.
