LiveCycle Designer - Printer Tray mapping

Question

I'm trying to do so when you print from Adobe Acrobat/Reader it prints to a specific tray/bin in the printer. I just want to change the LiveCycle Design settings and not the Workbench settings.

Also, I'm sending a PDF that converts to a PCL and then prints.

So this is where I'm right now:

I created a paper type called "A4Tray3", that I can use on my Master pages.

So now I want to mapp "A4Tray3" to a specific tray/bin. I'm looking in the file "hppcl5e.xdc" and I'm trying to figure out where to write some PCL code that prints to the right tray. I have the specifics for the printer and all I need to know is where i write the mapping from the paper type to the tray for my printer.

Is it somewhere here?

The concept of printer trays is not applicable to PDF. That is, you cannot specify a particular printer tray when printing a PDF document. The selection at the printer is based on page size, and the first non-secured tray that matches the required page size is used. If no match to the size is found, a manual feed is requested. (source)
