Abstract

Die von einer Büromaschine ausgegebenen Blätter (14) werden unmittelbar aufeinandergestapelt abgelegt. Um zusammengehörige Gruppen von Blättern in dem Stapel leichter trennen zu können, werden jeweils Trennfolien (24) zwischen die einzelnen Gruppen von zusammengehörenden Blättern (14) abgelegt. Um die durch die Trennfolien (24) getrennten Blattgruppen bestimmten Nutzern der Büromaschine zuordnen zu können, werden unterschiedliche Typen von Trennfolien (24), z.B. unterschiedlich farbige Trennfolien (24) verwendet. Die unterschiedlichen Typen von Trennfolien (24) sind durch eine automatisch erkennbare Kennzeichnung identifiziert und werden entsprechend dieser Kennzeichnung auf den Blattstapel abgelegt.

Figure 00000001
The sheets (14) issued by an office machine are immediately stacked on top of one another. In order to be able to more easily separate related groups of sheets in the stack, separating foils (24) are placed between the individual groups of related sheets (14). In order to be able to assign the sheet groups separated by the separating films (24) to certain users of the office machine, different types of separating films (24), for example differently colored separating films (24), are used. The different types of separating foils (24) are identified by an automatically recognizable marking and are placed on the sheet stack in accordance with this marking.
