The commands that direct print output to different trays vary with the
printer driver. I would think it quite a task to provide a universal
solution where the printer is not known. You may find fellow MVP Jonathan
West's article at
http://pubs.logicalexpressions.com/Pub0009/LPMArticle.asp?ID=101 and mine at
http://www.gmayor.com/fax_from_word.htm useful.
Printing sections and parts of sections is simple enough if you add the
section number to the pages to be printed eg p2s2 will print page 2 of
section 2 and p1s1-p4s1 will print pages 1 to 4 of Section 1
