printig trays - which one?

[Peter Finlay]

Hi All,

Would anyone please be able to show me how to write the vb code in word to
print a page from a certain tray on the printer automatically.

for example my printer has 4 trays and I would really like to print from the
manuel feed tray. This tray is known as "manual feed tray 1". I would like
a code that would automatically choose this tray.

Any help or ideas would be great

Kind regards

My solution is to create multiple Windows printers - each one with a
different default settings e.g paper tray, paper size etc. Then print
to the appropriate printer. This method is 100% successful (which
can't always be said of the more elegant methods)
