Word supports any printer supported by Windows. This is because Word uses the features offered by Windows to print documents. Many of the features associated with formatting your document and printing are related to the type of printer you have installed and selected. For instance, some laser printers have different bins for different paper. Windows (and thus Word) can instruct the printer to select paper from any of the available paper bins.
If your printer supports multiple paper sources and you want to change the paper source used for your document (for instance, you have a bin that contains letterhead and you want to print on it), you should follow these steps:
Figure 1. The Paper tab of the Page Setup dialog box.
If, in step 6, you don't see different options for paper sources, then your printer (or printer driver) does not support multiple sources. Once you have specified different sources for your paper, the information is saved with the document. This means that every time you print the document, it will select paper as you directed. This also applies to using the print-merging feature of Word. For instance, the first page of each document merged and printed can be selected from a different bin than each subsequent page.
