Make a manual paper feed tray take everything from 3x5 to 8.5x14. Cards, envelopes, etc - we all need a manual paper feed tray that will accept all sorts of paper and print them in the correct spots on the paper.

    Vickie, I know we traded emails this morning, but wanted to reply here as well: The paper size for any trays should be able to be set within the driver ("printer properties") for any Dell model. You should be able to edit and save customer sizes, as well as select from a variety of default options. I'd encourage you (or anyone else with similar problems) to contact support to see if its either a setting or perhaps a new driver install that is needed.

    I do not have issues with the 2150cn with adjusting the paper tray with index cards; I have issues with the custom paper sizes not being easily edited.

    The manual feed tray should accept any paper size that the normal tray will. In fact, on most printers the manual tray/slot will accept a broader range of sizes than the standard tray thanks to a simpler paper path.

    I know this reply is horribly late, but if there's a specific printer or situation you're having problems with, feel free to elaborate and I'll do what I can to assit. You can also email me at paul_nicholson@dell.com
