Large Capacity Tray (LCT)

Large Capacity Trays are floor-standing or integrated units that dramatically increase paper capacity for high-volume printing environments. While standard copier trays hold 250-550 sheets, LCTs provide 1,000-3,000+ sheet capacity, eliminating frequent refills. LCTs are particularly valuable in: high-volume production environments, unattended print jobs (overnight runs), offices with limited staff, and applications requiring consistent paper supply. Benefits include: 80-90% reduction in refill frequency, fewer paper-out interruptions, protected paper storage (dust and moisture-free), support for multiple paper types and sizes. LCTs typically cost $800-$2,500 but ROI comes quickly through labor savings and reduced downtime. Installation is straightforward - most LCTs connect beneath copiers as standalone units. Key considerations: floor space requirements, paper size compatibility, loading mechanism (front vs top), and maximum weight capacity. Some high-end copiers support multiple LCTs for different paper stocks.
