Another option is to write escape codes directly to the printer. PCL5 is pretty powerful. I used it alot in my old DOS Fox days. I assume U have a manual for your printer. This will contain the codes necessary. I used the ???CHR(27)+... stuff without a problem. But, this was specific to one printer! PCL5 is pretty standard and may be supported by other printers in some fashion. Best advice is to consult your printer manual. Here is an example:
*******************
* Set Printer Up. *
* Font/Pitch. *
*******************
??? CHR(27) + CHR(38) + CHR(108) + CHR(49) + CHR(79) && Landscape Orientation
??? CHR(27) + CHR(38) + CHR(108) + CHR(56) + CHR(68) && 8 Lines per inch vertical
??? chr(27) + chr(40) + chr(49) + chr(48) + chr(85) && Symbol Set - PC-8
??? chr(27) + chr(40) + chr(115) + chr(51) + chr(66) && Stroke - Bold
??? chr(27) + chr(40) + chr(115) +"12" + chr(72) && Pitch - 12 Characters per Inch

I never tried picking the tray.... Good luck!
