Abstract:
1. A sheet handling device comprising: input and output section that stacks sheets and accepts and dispenses sheets from the sheet handling device; a storing unit that stores sheets; a repository unit that reposits sheets; a transport path that transports sheets, wherein the transport path is allocated between the storing unit, the repository unit, and the input and output section; a determination section allocated on the transport path and that determines transport conditions of sheets being transported; and a controller, wherein when the determination section determines an improper transport condition of a sheet being transported from the repository unit to the input/output section by the transport path, the controller controls the transport path so as to store the sheet in the storing unit, wherein the transport path includes: wherein when the determination section has determined an improper transport condition of a sheet of interest that was transported from the repository unit to the determination section by the first transport path, the sheet of interest, having the improper transport condition, is queued on the second transport path, wherein a temporary storing unit is allocated on the second transport path and temporarily reposits sheets other than the sheet of interest, the sheet of interest being queued on the second transport path without being reposited in the temporary storing unit, wherein after the sheet of interest has been queued on the second transport path, other sheets on the first transport path are transported to the repository unit, and wherein after the other sheets on the first transport path have been transported to the repository unit, the sheet of interest is transported to the storing unit.
