Claims
- 1. An image formation apparatus, comprising:
- a first process means for forming a primary image on a recording medium;
- a second process means for forming a secondary image repeatedly in correspondence with the primary image;
- first input means for setting a desired number of secondary images to be provided;
- second input means for starting the operation of the apparatus;
- means for interrupting the operation of the apparatus before the completion of the set number of the secondary images in response to improper states; and
- means for controlling the first process means and the second process means to execute the primary image formation and the secondary image formation successively in accordance with said second input means, and controlling the second process means to start the secondary image formation without starting the primary image formation in accordance with said second input means when the interruption by said interrupting means occurs.
- 2. An image formation apparatus according to claim 1, further comprising detecting means to detect a jam of a recording sheet on which said secondary image is formed, and said interrupting means interrupts the operation of the apparatus when said detecting means detects the jam of the recording sheet.
- 3. An image formation apparatus, comprising:
- a first process means for forming a primary image on a recording medium;
- a second process means for forming a secondary image repeatedly in correspondence with the primary image;
- input means for setting a desired number of secondary images to be provided;
- memory means for storing the desired number of secondary images set by said input means;
- discriminating means for discriminating whether or not the formation of secondary images corresponding to the number stored in said memory means has terminated by counting the number of the secondary images formed by said second process means; and
- controlling means for controlling said first process means and said second process means to execute the primary image formation and the secondary image formation successively in response to a start input signal, and thereby, when the formation of secondary images has been discriminated to be terminated by said discriminating means, said first process means newly forms another primary image so that secondary images corresponding to the number stored in said memory means are formed relative to each primary image.
- 4. An image formation apparatus comprising:
- image forming means to form an image;
- key input means to set a number of images to be formed by said image forming means;
- memory means for storing the number set by said key input means;
- clear input means to clear the number stored in said memory means;
- first control means for controlling said image forming means repeatedly to perform image formation for the number stored in said memory means;
- second control means having an infinite mode to perform image formation regardless of the number; and
- infinite input means to select the infinite mode by said second control means;
- wherein after images of the number set in said memory means are finished, when the infinite input is input by said infinite input means, the numerical data stored in said memory means is invalidated by an input signal of said infinite input means without operation of said clear input means, thereby enabling operation in said infinite mode.
