Thanks for the response, Evan. The problem is that VFA is grayed out in the Print Setup so I can’t select it. And believe me, I have read the manual more than once. I did try the tray behind the regular paper holder and got an error message blinking red light. Since you have not had a problem, I know it can be done. I’ll try some other combinations.
