I am a new comer. I am working on an application (Win32) which coverts word files to pdf and print it on a HP 8150 Laser printer. Can I choose the output tray from my application? I mean I want the output pdf in a different chosen tray. Can I?

thanks a lots

If using the Windows printer driver, control trays through the API.

If you are generating all the code you need to process PPD files. PPD
files contain PostScript code fragments for printer control, since
printer control is not portable.

I'm using a Xerox Phaser 6200 color laser printer. It's connected to my Sony Vaio PCV-RZ30CG computer through USB 2.0. I'd like to write programs in Postscript 2 or 3. How can I do this?

You want to create a program to choose the printer tray?  Start with
the PPD file, it contains the PostScript fragments you need.
