Is there a way to tell CFPRINT which Paper Tray to use? It seems to be choosing the Manual Paper Tray by default.


TIA

    I don't think one can specify one way or the other. Is the manual feed
    either the first tray or the default tray? Or are you printing a paper
    size that the printer isn't loaded with?

    You might want to look @ the Java Print Service, which is what <cfprint>
    uses under the hood. As with most things CF implements a wrapper for, it
    only seems to cover a superficial subset of features.

    I googled '"Java Print Service" tray' and got some useful links.

    hi there

    you can set the paper tray in the printer driver. We've defined for each tray a dedicated printer driver ie lexmark tray1, lexmark tray2 and so on

    Use GetPrinterInfo("printerName") to determine paper types that are supported.  Some of these "paper" types are specific paper trays.  Specify the attribute paper="" to specify the appropriate tray, but be careful as tray names are specific.  For example we have two different printers.  One reports tray number 3 as "Tray3" (no space), the other as "Tray 3" (with a space).
