Printer tray redirection
Dear all.
We're having the problem, that we need to redirect the paper-tray of some printers.
The reason is, that most of the printers are Brother, which are using the following numbering:
Multifunctional-Tray - Tray1 - Tray2
Now we need to buy other printers, which are usually using the following numbering:
Tray1 (MF) - Tray2 - Tray3
If we now like to print a document with a predefined tray1 (which prints usually on a brother) on a HP, the printer is (correctly) asking for paper in the MF-Tray, which is number 1.
Is there a solution to redirect printer trays on specific printers? It would be nice to have a driver or software, which redirects the trays on the printserver (or as well on the Client).
Printserver is Windows 2008R2
Clients are Windows 8
Thank you for your hints.

The problem is, that we need to change all documents then or to advice the users to always change between the different settings, as some of them are using both printer-models.
I hope there is another way to handle this..
