Abstract
A sheet processing apparatus includes: a sheet conveying unit that conveys a sheet; a sheet stacking member on a placing surface of which the sheet conveyed by the sheet conveying unit is stacked; an edge aligning unit that aligns edges of sheets in a sheet conveying direction on the sheet stacking member; a first binding unit that binds the sheets aligned by the edge aligning unit using a binding member; and a second binding unit that binds the sheets aligned by the edge aligning unit without using a binding member. The sheet processing apparatus selects either of the first binding unit and the second binding unit and performs binding processing on the sheets. The first binding unit and the second binding unit are integrally constructed.
