No. My HP printer comes with a paper tray that is adjustable, as far
as
I can see, for any size that is not much bigger than A4, and Printer
Setup offers a wide range of sizes including inch-denominated ones.
Previous printers, while not having trays, had comparable flexibility.
I don't recall ever seeing a printing device needing different trays
for
slight changes of size, though A3 & A4 trays might differ.
Therefore I'd not expect to be able to buy non-locally-sized trays
anywhere. OTOH, HP's listing of trays may differ with locality, so
that
the locally-favoured sizes are conspicuous.
DER was referring to paper sizes; he made no mention of any difficulty
in using A3, if he had some to hand.

Stop wanting that. What size paper I use is my business, not yours.

*My* pages. *My* paper. *My* printer.
(This seems like such an odd thread. How w many people you think happen
to have a tray loaded with A3 paper sitting on their printer anyway?)
