Is there any difference between the Polaroid 545 and 545i when it comes to using Tmax ready-loads?

Since the 545 stays in LOAD position with ready-loads, if the clip-holding end is healthy, I imagine I'm not to concerned about the condition of the rubber rollers, right?

Thanks

It'll work fine. I have an old 545. For color 4x5 all I use are Readyloads.

When Readyloads were made two sided there was a big problem with their leaking in Polaroid holders. You had to have a Kodak holder to use them. I've often speculated that that problem was a major driver of their redesign when they went to the one sheet Readyload.
