Abstract
An image on a fed document is read, and recording paper on which an output image is formed based on the read image is discharged onto a first tray. When overlapped feeding is detected at the time of feeding a document, page numbers of the overlapped documents are recorded, and an image on a document fed after the overlapped documents is read, an output image is formed on recording paper based on the read image, and the recording paper is discharged onto a second tray to notify the occurrence of overlapped feeding. When the documents are set again by the user and fed, an image on a document of a page number matching a recorded page number is read, an output image is formed on recording paper based on the read image, and the recording paper is discharged onto the first tray.
