mail merged document print as a separate printjob

[Edy Werder]

Dear all,

We use Word mail merge feature in our company for mass mailing. Typically in
our case the first page of a source document is taken form a different paper
tray as the additional pages.

We use a HP4300 printer for this and it works okay.

We would also like to use our Konica copierer machine for these printjob.
Unfortunately the print driver from Konica cannot handle different trays for
a mail merge documents, since Word use section breaks to separate the
addresses.

I've learnt from a quick google search, that there is a solution with a
macro to send section breaks as separate printjobs to the printer. I think,
this could bypass the problem with the Konica copierer.

It would be very appreciated to get some possible solution for this problem.

Thank you
edy

Edy,

Help! I've spent all morning trying to get my mail merge
to print out on our HP4300 using multiple trays. Page 1
of the document is letterhead, page 2 is plain with 450
records to print. How do you set this up on the HP4300
options? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks, Roma

Roma,

You set this up in Word, file, page setup, tap paper first page tray x ,
other tray Y.

Second that, you need to make this in the source document before you merge
