Word 2003 Printer Tray Selection Ignored

Greetings..

On our new Exchange network, I have a laser jet 4300 installed with an Envelope Feeder, manual feed tray (Tray 1), the built in tray (Tray 2) and a Tray 3 which holds 1500 pages.  

The driver for the 4300 is PCL 5e (60.5.30.4).  

On the desktop I am using Word 2003 (SP1), Windows XP Professional.

When I select paper tray 3 in File, Page Setup, I print to Tray 2
When I select paper tray 3 in File, Page Setup and in Print Options Default Tray and in File, Print, Preferences, Paper/Quality Source, I print to Tray 2.

I would very much appreciate any suggestions or assistance you may office.

Thank you.

THANK YOU!  That response alone was worth the annual fee!!!

Your answer put me on the right track  In addition to Tray change, I had to change the Type to either "unspecified" or "auto select" depending on the printer.  

I can now write the macro to pick the correct tray for letterhead....Thanks again!!!
