Runnaging through the web I see that a similar model allows you to set 
up and select the trays from the print dialog. You could try doing that 
too. 

Check the 'print to file' box on the printer port so that it writes a 
file.

Print a 'Hello World' page to the printer and force it to use tray 1. 
Save the file with an easy to remember name.

Repeat for tray 2.

Compare the PostScript files to see what's different.
