HP8000 uses HP4000 PCL commands
## We have printcap information
[ hp4000_pcl ]
## pcl paper source selection
## use -Zsource=n
## 0 - current, 1 - tray 2 (first cassette), 2 - manual
## 3 - ????
## 4 - tray 1 (Multipurpose), 5 - tray 3 (second cassete)
## 6 - envelope 8 - tray 4 (third cassette)
## 20-39 high capacity input trays 2-21
##
pcl_intray1=\033&l4H
pcl_intray2=\033&l1H
pcl_intray3=\033&l5H
pcl_intray4=\033&l8H
You can look at the pcl it is generating by using:
echo test | ifhp -Tdev=/tmp/out,trace,model=hp8000,pcl,status@,forceprocessing
I got:

So now you can try using the tray commands:
echo test | ifhp -Tdev=/tmp/out,trace,model=hp8000,pcl,status@,forceprocessing,intray1

@PJL SET INTRAY1 = ON
@PJL ENTER LANGUAGE = PCL

Does this help a bit?
