As a work around, I've installed the print three times on the target machine,
with different names.  I've hard-coded the tray selection into the installation
-- so one printer always pulls from tray 3, the other always from tray 2 (the
default installation is "Printer Select".   Then, I just use the PRINTER
command to direct the output to the appropriate one of the three printers.

I believe it is something like this.  The printer seems to be making up its own
mind about where to take the paper from -- it seems to pull from the last tray
it used.  If I force it to tray three, it will keep pulling my special forms
from there.  Generally it pulls from tray 2.

I'll try that.  I tried a number of things with the "Tray 3" but not removing
the space betwen the pipe and the word TRAY.
