Officejet Pro 8630 / 8620
Mac OS X 10.11 El Capitan

I have the same issue that this user describes. https://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Printer-Software-and-Drivers/Easy-selection-printing-to-tray-1-or-2/m-... I see that this post is a couple of years old, and is for a Windows machine.

  • Is this still the best way to solve this problem?
  • Do I need to alter these instructions at all for a Mac (other than using the Mac driver instead)?
  • Isn't there any way that I could use the driver for the 8630 (which has the second drawer integrated into the driver) to simply make my 8620 "think" of itself as an 8630?

Greetings @JenSeeds,

 

Thanks for reaching out to us on HP Forums. 

 

I understand that you are looking for the procedure to install and use an optional secondary paper tray on your Officejet 8620 and you are using MAC computer.
Don't worry, I will be glad to help.

Have you referred the printer manual?

Is the printer working fine?

 

For assistance in installing the secondary tray, please refer to this article

Refer to page numbers 30-33 in the printer manual for the procedure to use the secondary tray in MAC. 

Please click here for the printer manual.
