Abstract
A paper processing apparatus includes a pressing member which approaches and presses a paper bundle inserted into a space formed between the pressing member and a supporting member for supporting a paper, a cutting blade which cuts an end portion of the paper bundle pressed by the pressing member, a removal member having a front end portion which removes cutting waste of the paper bundle, a removal member which has a front end portion which reaches a position at which the paper bundle is pressed by the pressing member, and removes cutting waste of the paper bundle by the front end portion, and a control unit. The control unit controls the removal member such that the front end portion is positioned at a retreat position apart from the pressing member during an approaching operation in which the pressing member is approaching the paper bundle.
