    Printing large volumes of A5 size

    Hi
    Has anybody a solution for printing large volumes of A5 size paper on a Bizhub 223 or Bizhub 454e type machine.
    The LCT trays on these machines only take A4.

    Thank you

      You've answered your own question. Convert as many trays as possible to A5-R (preferably not A5).

      Also watch that the media is sized consistently. The customer of mine that used a lot of Stmt-R hacked it up on a tabletop paper cutter, and there was a lot of variability with the size ... resulting in jams and skew. =^..^=
      If you'd like a serious answer to your request:
      1) demonstrate that you've read the manual
      2) demonstrate that you made some attempt to fix it.
      3) if you're going to ask about jams include the jam code.
      4) if you're going to ask about an error code include the error code.
      5) You are the person onsite. Only you can make observations.

          Unfortunately it has to be from one tray source due to custom software but thanks for reply

              The LCT will never recognize A5-R as a valid paper size. =^..^=

                  Why don't they get a guillotine and just cut A4 in half. If the machine clicks once for every A5 it is a bid dumb from there side.
                  Whatever

                      Mbmcorp.com has some nice cutters that can cut easily through a ream a paper and accurately.

                      If they can just print the image twice on one sheet that sounds like a winner.
