SUMMARY
When using the HP4000 and other PCL5-type printers, Paper Drawer options are only available for the HP printer driver that is being used on the AS/400 when using HPT (Host Print Transform). If the specific AS/400 printer driver is not available for the particular printer being used, then those drawers will only be accessible using Drawer Redirection on the IBM AS/400.



MORE INFORMATION
At this time IBM states that they do not directly support the HP4000 using HPT (Host Print Transform) by offering a specific driver for this type of printer. However, they do offer a technical document that will allow "Workstation Customizing Object Modifications" to redirect to these additional drawers using control strings. See IBM AS/400 Support Line Technical Document 8692422 for more information.
