Here are the steps to print to a different tray on a HP4050N:
1) Copy the device type you are using now to a Z name (HPLJ5SI to ZHPLJ5SI)
2) Depending on what release you are on this step is a little different:
Both should be done in DEV system:
3.x - SPAD -> Device Formats in change mode. Enter the new device type
and the format from the output of the print request is using (X_65_80 for
example).
Click on execute, Cursor should be on Printer initialization, click
edit.
Now go to the bottom of this file and add a new line with a printer
string of \e&l1H which would print to tray 2. Save this twice.
4.x - SPAD -> Full Admin -> Device types --> click on new device type,
then click on formats -> double-click on format you want to change for that
device type and continue from 3.x steps.
3) Now you need to define another logical printer for that HP4050N using the
new device type.
You would then have two printers defined for the same physical printer and
one would print to tray 1 and the other tray 2.
Check your HP Printer User's Guide on the different strings that are
available....
Hope this helps....
