Abstract:
This system is provided with: a conveying device  1  that conveys paper P along a conveying path F; a sheet paper supply device  2 , paper-folding device, or cutter connected to an upstream end of the conveying path; a gathering device  3  disposed midway through the conveying path; a saddle stitch device  7  connected to a downstream end of the conveying path; and a management unit  13  that collectively controls the conveying device, the sheet paper supply device, the paper-folding device, the cutter, the gathering device, and the saddle stitch device. The gathering device can switch operation between a non-operating mode, a first operating mode for operating as a primary gathering device, and a second operating mode for operating as a paper insertion device.

Claim (Index 1):
A saddle-stitch book binding system comprising:\n a conveying device conveying sheets of paper along a conveying path; a cut paper supply device or a folding device or a cutter connected to an upstream end of the conveying path; a collator arranged on the intermediate portion of the conveying path; a saddle stitching device connected to a downstream end of the conveying path; and a controller integrally controlling the cut paper supply device and the folding device and the cutter and the collator and the saddle stitching device, wherein the collator can switch between a non-operating mode, a first operating mode in which the collator operates as such collator and a second operating mode in which the collator operates as an additional sheet supplying device.
