Abstract:
A sheet feeding apparatus includes a sheet tray configured to hold sheets, a sheet feeding unit configured to feed sheets from the sheet tray, and a lift unit configured to move the sheet tray up and down. When the type of sheets to be held on the sheet tray is to be changed to another type, the lift unit moves the sheet tray up or down to a sheet holding position set for sheets of the other type. Thus, the position where the sheet tray can hold sheets is changed in accordance with the material or size of the sheets. The largest number, in which sheets can be mounted on the sheet tray, can thereby be changed.

Claim (Index 21):
The image forming system according to  claim 16 , wherein the sheet type includes a sheet length measured in the sheet-feeding direction; and the sheet-holding position setting unit sets a first sheet-holding position if the sheet length measured in the sheet-feeding direction and acquired by the sheet-data acquiring unit is equal to or shorter than a first length, and sets a second sheet-holding position above the first sheet-holding position if the sheet length measured is longer than the first length.
