HP m880 print from two different trays

solvution · ‎05-02-2019

Hi, i am looking to run off a feew booklets and i want the first page to be mid weight pulled from tray one and the rest of the pages pulled from Tray 2. I have to run off 600 of these booklets.

I know there is an option to insert a preprinted or blank page but i want the HP to print on the card from tray 1 and also print on the rest.

is this a possibility and can anyone guide me through this.

Thanks in advance

There is an advanced option on the Universal Print Driver that allows you to customize which tray is used for different page numbers in a document. I can post a screen shot later today to point you in the right direction.

This screen shot is from UPD 6.6 driver but options should be the same on most HP drivers. In printer preferences locate "special pages" and click settings just below, opens the menu on the left that allows you to define which tray to print from for every page on a document. Any page you do not list will simply print from default tray.
