Abstract:
A sheet processing device includes a conveying unit, a presser, an end detector, and a setting unit. The conveying unit conveys a sheet having a crease formed therein. The presser presses the crease in the sheet. The end detector detects an end in a conveying direction of the sheet at a position upstream of the presser in the conveying direction. The setting unit sets a crease position where the crease is to be formed. Upon detection of the end in the conveying direction, the conveying unit conveys the sheet to a position where the crease faces the presser, on the basis of the crease position set by the setting unit. The presser presses the crease in the conveyed sheet.

Claim (Index 1):
A sheet processing device comprising:\n a folding unit configured to fold a sheet to form two or more creases in the sheet; a conveyer configured to convey the sheet; a presser configured to press the two or more creases in the sheet; a sheet detector arranged on a downstream side of the folding unit and on an upstream side of the presser in a conveying direction of the sheet, and configured to detect a leading edge of the sheet; and a setting unit configured to set press positions for the creases, wherein none of the creases is on the leading edge in the conveying direction of the sheet, and the conveyer is configured to convey, after the sheet detector detects the leading edge of the sheet in the conveying direction, the sheet by a distance obtained by adding a distance between the presser and the sheet detector to a distance between the leading edge of the sheet and a first creases closest to the leading edge of the sheet.
