Custom Printer Trays

[Geoff]

Hi all,

I have a VB.NET app that sets up the default tray for reports to print to.
Values returned from Papersource.Kin d are stored in a table for the user
group and report. This all worked fine until the users bought a new printer
with four trays, two of which tray 3 and Tray 4 return the value 257
(Custom). This is not the correct value and so reports cannot be set to to
auto print to tray 3 or 4.

Does anyone know how I can retrieve the correct values for the custom trays?

Many Thanks

Geoff.

RE: Custom Printer Trays

Have I completely missed something here or is the fact that Papersource.Kin d
is an enum a bit of a problem? Surely there is a way round this or another
method that I can use to identify trays on a printer?
