Abstract

A composite copy of an image or images from a single or plural original sheets is formed by regulating the position or positions of the images from the original sheets on the copy sheet in a copy paper feeding direction and a direction orthogonal thereto. The setting of the image positions in the X and Y directions on the copy sheet is obtained by regulating the scanning of the original sheet, movement of the illumination system or optical system, or timing of movement of the photosensitive member or the copy sheet.
