Using Escape Sequence Codes

I have a pcl6 print driver for word 2000.
How do I use escpae sequence codes in word to have the printer pull from
different trays. For example records 1,3,4,6 need to pull from tray 2 and
records 2,5,7 need to pull from tray3.
 
I suspect that this may be doomed to failure, however the syntax is
{ PRINT 27"&l2H" } (tray 2)
{ PRINT 27"&l4H" } (tray 3)
Assuming those escape codes actually call the correct trays in your printer
driver. It all tends to be a bit hit and miss.
Look at http://pubs.logicalexpressions.com/Pub0009/LPMArticle.asp?ID=116
and http://www.gmayor.com/fax_from_word.htm for some background reading on
controlling printers from vba.
