KM C6500 w/Fiery -- How to gangup 9x12 finished page on a 13x19 sheet? Possible?

[jay3]

Having a hard time getting 2 prints on one page.

I'm trying to get a final cut size of 9x12 (w/full bleed). The image is duplex as well.

I've used 9.25 x 12.25 initially and set .125 bleeds w/crop marks in indesign, but in Fiery Gangup it is only letting me print 1 copy per page.

Any idea what settings or image sizes I can use to accomplish this?

Thanks!

could always buy the Fiery impose dongle to do just that.
or PS, indesign, quark, any pdf creator and copy paste 2 up on a 13x19 file.

Ah.. well now I know why the "Impose" button is shaded. I'll have to get one of those.

Building a 13x19 image with crop marks is doable enough. Thanks for the idea!

Fiery Impose is like £1-2000 isnt it?

It's a more professional/integrated solution but there are definitely cheaper/free ways round this issue

I'm a printshop owner with a fleet of Bizhub C6500 and C6501's. We always have the graphic designer gang up the jobs and send them to the press room as pdfs. For example, we run business cards (3.5" x 2.0") 24 up on a 12 x 18 sheet with no bleeds or 21 up on a 12 x 18 sheet with bleeds. Its so much easier to control the print jobs this way.
