I use tray 1 (the fold out tray) on my CM3530 when printing on different paper like glossy card stock, envelopes, labels, etc. so I set Tray 1 on the machine itself to "Any type" and "Any custom" size.
However it seems each time I change either paper type and/or size, the machine then asks me a series of endless questions about paper types, sizes and trays and nothing seems to satisfy it and I'm not yet quite sure what series of answers gets it working but then it will work without all those questions again until I change paper type again. I think I have to take the paper out of tray one at some point and put it back in so that it thinks I changed the paper to the right type. Sometimes if I answer incorrectly it will print the job using plain paper from Tray 2.
This is when printing from the computer, and I am selecting the paper tray and paper type in the printer properties on the computer.
Is there a way to avoid the endless questions about paper types, sizes and trays whenever I change paper type?
At least this is far better than the Canon machine I had where you can't even specify a different paper type just for one job from the computer, paper type can only be set on the machine itself on my old Canon, that was a PITA changing it back and forth all the time.
Thanks
