Abstract
A printing unit prints ordinary images on multiple sheets of paper, the printing unit further printing at least one cutting mark on one of the multiple sheets of paper. The at least one cutting mark is printed at a periphery of a relevant one of the ordinary images printed on the one of the multiple sheets of paper. The at least one cutting mark is used as a reference for cutting off peripheries of the multiple sheets of paper. A top sheet detecting unit detects a top sheet of the multiple sheets of paper. An ejecting unit ejects the multiple sheets of paper after the printing unit prints the ordinary images and the at least one cutting mark on the multiple sheets of paper. The ejecting unit thus creates a stack of the multiple sheets of paper. The top sheet is located at the top of the stack of the multiple sheets of paper when the stack of the multiple sheets of paper is in a state in which a relevant one of the ordinary images printed on the top sheet faces upward.
