1. An image forming system comprising:
an image forming apparatus;
a post-processing apparatus; and
a control section for controlling the image forming apparatus and the post-processing apparatus;
wherein the post-processing apparatus is movable between a first position to receive a long paper from the image forming apparatus and a second position to receive a non-long paper from the image forming apparatus;
wherein when the post-processing apparatus is moved to the first position after detection of a paper jam in the image forming apparatus, the control section judges that a jammed paper is being removed, and when the post-processing apparatus is moved to the second position thereafter, the control section judges that the removal of the jammed paper has been completed.
