HP Recommended

Setting up a new HP LJ 600 M602dn. Printing from a workstation running Win8.1, using either the Universal Print Driver PCL6 or the printer-specific driver. Printer is set up on a network with a static IP address.

 

Tray 2 and Tray 3 are loaded with letter, plain. All print jobs prompt to feed paper in Tray 1 unless Manual Feed is disabled via the web interface for the printer. Tray sizes cannot be set using the web interface. Tray 1 is set (automatically) to Any Size, Any Type. I have tried changing the settings for Tray 1 under Use Requested Tray (First/Exclusively) and Manual Feed Prompt (Always/Unless Loaded) and neither setting has any effect.

 

I just want my print jobs to use paper automatically from Tray 2 or 3 and not prompt for manual feed, especially as Tray 1 is not in use (no paper loaded). Disabling manual feed doesn't seem like a good option as I may want to use it at some time.

 

Why is this set as the default behavior? I just want to print and have the printer process the job without walking over to it and hitting a button.
