hi,
	I have a HP IIIsi printer with Adobe 3.0 and I am running transcript
3.0.  I am interested in being able to select which tray the printer gets its
paper from based upon an option to lpr or a different queue or something such
as this (ie:one tray 3-hole punch & the other normal).

the thing to insert is:
%%EndSetup
1 statusdict /setpapertray get exec  <----selects tray #1 rather than 0
%%Page: ? 1
StartPage

	question is: how can I get this to be done automatically? perhaps, 
again, because of an option to lpr/pslpr or a different queue or something of
the sort ?  it should be able to cope with ps and non-ps.  any suggestions ?

thanks,
