Abstract

A control section of a notch forming apparatus shifts a position of a notch in the first direction for every single sheet or for every plural sheets. When number of the sheets on which the notch is formed reaches at a criterion number, the position of the notch is shifted to a second direction which is an opposite direction in respect to the first direction.
