What is a good option for making A5 flyers?

I'm looking for something with FOSS drivers, compact, reasonably affordable to run, and that doesn't mind being switched off for a week at a time.

Image quality is not paramount but should be respectable.

Do I have any decent options?

Does it absolutely have to be an A5 printer? I recon that this format is not widely used. It might be easier to get an A4 printer + a guillotine paper cutter to cut the prints in half.

a guillotine paper cutter to cut the prints in half.

Also the printer, if it misbehaves.

No it doesn't - in fact A4 would make it more versatile

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
