XPRINT GET TRAY statement  

Remarks

XPRINT GET TRAY retrieves the paper tray which is active on the host printer.  A descriptive value is assigned to the long integer variable specified by TrayVar&.  The following equates are predefined in the compiler, and represent the most common paper trays:

%DMBIN_UPPER         = 1
%DMBIN_LOWER         = 2
%DMBIN_MIDDLE        = 3
%DMBIN_MANUAL        = 4
%DMBIN_ENVELOPE      = 5
%DMBIN_ENVMANUAL     = 6
%DMBIN_AUTO          = 7
%DMBIN_TRACTOR       = 8
%DMBIN_SMALLFMT      = 9
%DMBIN_LARGEFMT      = 10
%DMBIN_LARGECAPACITY = 11
%DMBIN_CASSETTE      = 14
%DMBIN_FORMSOURCE    = 15

Other tray codes may be defined by Windows or printer suppliers, so your program should be written to consider that possibility.  You can use XPRINT GET TRAYS to obtain a list of all the paper trays supported by the attached host printer.

If the printer does not support the tray change requested, error 5 is generated.  If executed without a host printer attached, error 57 is generated.
