Abstract:
There is provided a sheet post-processing apparatus capable of performing eco-stapling processing to prevent a decrease in binding force by the thickness of a sheet with a simple arrangement by changing a stapling count depending on the grammage and size of a sheet and the number of sheets in consideration of the change in binding force caused by the sheet size.

Claim (Index 3):
The apparatus according to  claim 1 , wherein the control unit controls the binding unit to allow a change in binding count of binding processing by the binding unit at an overlapping position in accordance with information about the grammage values of the outermost sheets of the sheet bundle, the information being obtained by the obtaining unit, if the obtaining unit obtains the information indicating that the sheet bundle is made of sheets having the plurality of different grammage values.
