Abstract
A mode for sorting sheets having two sides, on which images have been printed, is performed such that sheets each having one printed side are stacked in an automatic double side device, and the sheets stacked in the automatic double side device are sequentially extracted and conveyed. If a jam takes place during extraction and conveyance of the sheets, the position, at which the jam has taken place, is displayed on an LCD display unit. After the jammed sheet has been removed, the printing operation is caused to restart. If few sheets are stacked in the automatic double side device before the printing operation is completed, a copy key is depressed to perform control to perform the printing operation once again. Also, a method for replacing the images of the sheets which are jammed during the double sided copying operation is provided.
