Abstract (en)

A post-processing apparatus (3) includes a processing tray (18) for stacking a sheet (S) and a detection sensor (41) for detecting the presence or absence of the sheet placed on the processing tray. The post-processing apparatus includes a pinch roller (47) for moving towards the processing tray if the detection sensor does not detect the sheet, and a longitudinal alignment roller (40) configured to rotate by a predetermined amount while sandwiching the sheet in the processing tray with the pinch roller to elongate the sheet. By holding a rear end of the sheet in the processing tray with a paddle section (30) and elongating the sheet towards the downstream side with the longitudinal alignment roller, the presence or absence of the sheet is detected by the detection sensor.
