Abstract
An electronic copier includes an automatic document feeder for feeding original document sheets to be copied to an electronic image scanner or reader. During movement of the documents for reading, a count is generated of the number of original document sheets in a copy job. A check of the number of originals in the copy job may be requested and performed by a second feeding operation that occurs after the originals are scanned to increase productivity of the apparatus.
