How do I get my first page to print from Tray 1 and the rest from tray 2?

Hi,

I need a button on word that allows me to print my first page of the document on a thicker letterhead paper in Tray 1. Then the rest of the pages on thinner paper in Tray 2.

How do I do this?

Thanks

Answer

On the Page Layout tab, in the Page Setup group, click the dialog launcher (the small arrow in the bottom right corner) to open the Page Setup dialog (if you have the horizontal ruler displayed, a much quicker way is just to double-click at the top of the ruler). On the Paper tab, you can specify the tray for "First page" and "Other pages."

This setting is for the current document. If the document is based on a specific letter template, then you can save this setting for the template by clicking Set As Default and answering Yes in the dialog that asks if you want it to be the default for all new documents based on the [whatever] template.
