RE: [U2] LPTR / SETPTR / print from a specific tray
One of the programs we use has this line of code in it: MAN.PAPER.TRAY = CHAR(27):l2G; * SELECT THE MANUAL SOURCE TRAY It then just does a PRINT MAN.PAPER.TRAY to switch before printing a preprinted form. One of the online references I use, and like, has the command you need. Just be sure to change the 1 to which ever tray you want. Here it is: http://printers.necsam.com/public/printers/pclcodes/pcl5hp.htm Hope that helps.
