A post-processing apparatus of an embodiment includes a first tray configured to receive a sheet on which the post processing is not executed by a processing section, a second tray configured to temporarily place a sheet, an inlet roller configured to carry in a sheet discharged from an image forming apparatus into the post-processing apparatus, a first roller configured to convey the sheet to the first tray, a second roller configured to convey the sheet to the second tray, a detection sensor configured to detect whether or not there is sheet being conveyed in a sheet conveyance path from the inlet roller to the first or the second tray, and a roller control section configured to drive the first or the second roller if an image forming apparatus stops the discharge of the sheet that is being printed and the detection sensor detects the sheet.

A paper sheet processing device includes: a charging inlet that takes in paper sheets in a conveyance direction, the paper sheets including at least one target sheet and a partition card overlapped on the target sheet, the partition card having a main surface portion having at least one identification hole group, the identification hole group having at least two through holes arranged along the conveyance direction; a detection unit that detects take-in of the paper sheets by the charging unit, and detects the identification hole group; and a control unit that determines a paper sheet is the partition card in a case where the identification hole group has been detected by the detection unit, and determines that a paper sheet is the target sheet in a case where the identification hole group has not been detected by the detection unit.

An image forming apparatus includes a main body having an opening, an image forming unit, storage portions, each to store a sheet inside the main body, and a moving unit. The image forming unit forms an image on a sheet. The moving unit moves the sheet stored in each of the storage portions, and stop the sheet in an exposure state where a trailing edge of the sheet is inside the main body and a leading edge of the sheet is exposed outside the main body through the opening. The moving unit moves a first sheet stored in a first storage portion and a second sheet stored in a second storage portion, and stops the first sheet and the second sheet in the exposure state, wherein the leading edge of the first sheet and the leading edge of the second sheet are exposed outside the main body through the opening.

An image forming apparatus of the invention includes an image forming unit configured to form an image on a sheet; a plurality of storage portions each configured to store the sheet with the image formed thereon by the image forming unit; an opening configured to expose the sheet stored in the storage portion to the outside; and a sheet moving unit configured to move the sheet until a leading edge of the sheet stored in the storage portion passes the opening and a portion of the sheet is exposed from the opening to the outside. The sheet moving unit exposes sheets stored in a plurality of the storage portions in a stacked manner from the opening.

An image forming apparatus having an apparatus main body includes an image forming unit provided within the apparatus main body, a stacker portion provided on an upper surface of the apparatus main body, and a sheet storage portion provided between the image forming unit and the stacker portion. The image forming unit forms an image on a sheet. The stacker portion may receive, as stacked sheets, sheets on which images are formed by the image forming unit. The sheet storage portion may store, within the apparatus main body, a sheet on which an image is formed by the image forming unit.
