    Last I talked to support this was being worked on do we have any idea of a timeframe as to when the clients will be able to select trays?

    You can select trays from the printing properties of the 2x universal printer.

    If you want to open the local printer properties each time a print job goes through EMF or BMP mode run the following from command line on the client.

    Code:
    reg add HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\2X\AppServe rClient /v PrintUseProperties /t REG_DWORD /d 2
    Like this you have the options of your local printer opened before the printer job goes through.

    Remove this key once you do not want to see the options pop up any longer.

    Another solution is to print through your acrobat reader if you select pdf mode and enable view before printing.

    Hope this helps
    Thanks

    David,

    i discussed the same question like RSutherland posted with german support on chat because i didn-t understand why the "Properties" button on the local printer window is disabled after the print job reaches the client and the window to select the local printer pops up. He told me that the tray has to be selected in the UniversalPrinter-Properties and that the selection is being pushed down to the local printer.
    I tried your Regkey, it makes no obvious difference. What should it affect? If the client is set to "Choose Printer" on the Options page for the UniversalPrinter, the window for selecting the local printer always pops up. The "Properties"-Button is always disabled, with or without your RegKey.

    Regards

    Dirk

    When yoou have EMF or BMP selected on the client side , before printing a job it opens the local printer preferences so you can set properties manually.
    In pdf nothing changes.
