Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)
In the printer settings I have selected for the printer to automatically select the right paper tray. I have tablolid paper in tray 2, but when printing a tabloid doc, it tries to use tray 1 (letter). I have to manually tell it to use tray 2 for it to print a tabloid document.

Hi,
Please open and close Tray 1 and follow the prompt on screen to ensure the correct paper size is selected as Letter.
Now repeat the same on Tray 2 and ensure the correct size is select as, look for A3, Ledger or Tabloid and see if it can then automatically use the correct paper tray
