    RZ220 - Feeding long sheets of paper in?

    I'm trying to print a page where the image area is about 8.5"x11" but I need the sheet to be about 23-24" long because it's the a cover for a perfect bound book.

    I was wondering what setting I would have to set it to if it's even possible to run a banner sized paper through the RZ220?

    Any information would be helpful.

    Thanks!

    The RZ220 can't feed paper that is that long. Due to the dimensions of the drum, 17" (432mm) is the maximum length of paper that can be run through the machine.

      RZ390/590 can run papers 20"+ in them but the RZ220 can't? I don't need the imagery to be that large, it only needs to be 11"

          thanks! I'm just confused because if I look at a RZ590 spec, it says max paper is also 17" but I know for a fact that people have ran papers that are longer through the machine. I've seen it in action

            For what it is worth, if you are doing things that require the specs of a RZ590, you need to get a RZ590.

                I use another machine (GR3750) but may be it works: If I need to print on large paper, i fold it to a format the Riso can process, e.g. A2 to A3. Works more or less, not suitable for big runs, though.

                  Do you run one through at a time? Do you have to flatten it a lot for this to work?

                    Huh, I guess you know better than me. Sorry for bothering you.

                      If the RZ220 has interval print mode than it would be possible... but I think only some of the RZ machines have this mode.
