About tray selection

The practice has a new Fuji Xerox DC SC2020. In addition to its standard paper tray, it has a bypass tray which appears to be named 'Tray 5 (Bypass)' - at least thats what shows in the tray selection facility in Windows.

I thought I would be clever and add this as a tray selection, so I edited entityRelationship.documentTemplatePrinter.adl to add the line <property name="BYPASS" value="Tray 5 (Bypass)"/> to the paperTray local lookups, and then imported this.

However, this does not work because the only allowed tray names are those defined in javax.print.attribute.standard.MediaTray

The solution is to define two printers, one of which has the tray selection hard set to the required tray.  Hence in our system the printer FX DCSC2020 used the standard tray (loaded with plain paper), and FX DCSC2020 Bypass which pulls paper from the Bypass tray.
