An image forming apparatus including scanner section for reading an image of documents and an image of a separation sheet, a circuit for recognizing the image of the separation sheet from the image of the documents, a determining circuit for determining a processing for the image of the documents based on the image of the separation sheet, an operation panel for receiving a processing instruction for the image of the documents, and a processing circuit for processing the image of the documents based on the separation sheet and the processing instruction.
An image forming apparatus includes a storage section which stores image data for each page, an identification information generating section which generates identification information for identifying the type of the image data for each page, an engine image processor section has a plurality of processor sections for processing the image data to form an image, and a selector section which selects and outputs image data corresponding to the identification information, out of the image data processed by means of the processor section. The apparatus further includes an engine section which forms the image in accordance with the outputted image data.
A printing control apparatus performs print processing by sequentially spooling print data received from a data processing apparatus via a predetermined communication medium in units of a job and the spooled print data is analyzed in units of a job. The printing control apparatus spools the print data in a memory. When print processing is interrupted during processing of print data which has been spooled in advance, an execution schedule of each spooled job is changed so as to preferentially execute a job of spooled print data capable of being printed by analyzing the cause of the interruption of printing.
There are provided an image forming apparatus and a method of controlling the same are provided, which are capable of conveying an insert sheet of a proper page in carrying out a recovery process and simplifying the recovery process, and a storage medium storing a program for executing the method. When a printing start instruction is input and an insert mode has been set, an insert sheet is fed. It is determined whether the insert sheet is for a top page of a copy (bundle) or not. When the insert sheet for the top page is detected, a proper printing operation in the insert mode is started. If the insert sheet is not determined to be for the top page, it is judged that the insert sheet has not been correctly set on the inserter tray, and then the insert sheet is discharged to a non-sort tray. Then, insert sheets are discharged to the non-sort tray until the insert sheet for the top page is detected.

This invention is directed to a system and method for generating an image of a plurality of documents. More particularly, this invention is directed to a system and method for scanning a plurality of documents wherein the scanned pages are separated into distinct documents based on a pre-set page length.
