In step 43, the folding length adjustment dimension Y is calculated from the difference between the paper cutting length data and the standard size. At step 44, the start button is turned on, and at step 45, the paper guide 3 is driven to the first roller 5a side, and the rotation time of each roller is controlled so that the standard length R is obtained, and the paper is fed. Step 46
The presence or absence of the output of the first sensor 6a is determined with, and when the determination is Yes, the process proceeds to step 47, and after the time corresponding to the standard length R elapses,
The guide 3, the first roller, and the second roller are reversely driven to convey the paper to the second roller 5b side (step 48). Step 49
Then, the output of the second sensor 6b is determined, and when the determination is Yes, the process proceeds to step 50, and after the time corresponding to the folding length has elapsed, the guide 3, the first and second folding rollers 5a and 5b are driven to be reversed. , X min binding margin rollers 5a, 5b rotation time, by shortening the time that the sheet is moved by the drive time t 1, the length l fold conveyance of the sheet. When the output of the first sensor 6a is determined in step 51, the process proceeds to step 52, and the number of folds is checked.
折り回数が（ｎ−１）回となるまで、ステップ47から
ステップ51を繰返す。Steps 47 to 51 are repeated until the number of folds reaches (n-1) times.

Find the rotation time (t 1 −Y / l) of 5a and 5b,
Perform paper feed. In step 54, the second sensor 6b determines the presence or absence of the leading edge of the sheet, and if Yes, the process proceeds to step 55, the guide 3 is driven in the opposite direction, the rollers 5a and 5b are reversed, and the driving time is (t 1 − Y / l). The output of the sensor 6a is determined in step 56, and if Yes, the process proceeds to step 57, the guide 3, the first and second rollers 5a and 5b are reversed, the remaining paper is fed, and the paper folding process is performed. finish.

The adjustment of the folding length is performed (n-2) times. Further, the paper folding timing is controlled by the rotation time of the rollers 2, 5a, 5b, but may be controlled by the rotation speed.
