Wait, it gets worse: There is no way to automatically pull correct size paper even if you have an additional 250-sheet tray installed and loaded with different size paper (say, Letter in MPF and Legal in Tray 1.)
- I have Paper Tray option set to "Auto" in driver Print Preferences.
- I have MS Word Print Options set to "Use printer settings."
With Tray set to "Auto" in MS Word Page Setup, it would not print on Letter (pops message "Load Tray Letter" on the LCD panel and stops until you press Cancel button.)
So I set the default tray to MPF in MS Word Page Setup, because most of the output is on Letter. Whenever I have Legal-size document, I have to go into Page Setup in Word before I print, and manually change Paper Tray to Tray 1, otherwise it wouldn't print!
FRUSTRATING!! No HP printer ever had this problem except HP 2200 I once seen. They just used to work.
