POST-PROCESSING DEVICE FOR RECORDING MEDIUM AND RECORDING MEDIUM BUNDLE

To provide a post-processing device for a recording medium, capable of preventing parts subjected to binding processing in a recording medium bundle from being broken due to detaching the recording medium from the recording medium bundle subjected to the binding processing, compared with a case where a region subjected to the binding processing and a region subjected to punching processing are not superposed in the recording medium bundle.SOLUTION: A post-processing device for a recording medium, includes: binding processing means for performing binding processing to a recording medium bundle; and punching processing means for performing punching processing to a region including a part of a binding region where the binding processing is performed in the respective recording media constituting the recording medium bundle.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 6 【課題】記録媒体束において綴じ処理が施される領域と穴あけ処理が行われる領域とが重ならない場合に比べて、綴じ処理が施された記録媒体束から記録媒体を取り外すことに起因して記録媒体束のうち綴じ処理が施された部分が破れることを抑制する。【解決手段】記録媒体束に対して綴じ処理を施す綴じ処理手段と、記録媒体束を構成する各記録媒体において綴じ処理が施される綴じ領域の一部を含む領域に穴あけ処理を行う穴あけ処理手段と、を備える、記録媒体後処理装置。【選択図】図６
