Modify CUPS Printer - A3 Paper in Tray 3

[kurio71]

I have a HP Color LaserJet CP5225dn that I set up using the web server at

http://localhost:631/

for 50x iMacs. I have 2 trays installed. Tray 2 is A4 paper and Tray 3 is A3 paper. How do I configure the paper size per tray? At the moment the print only recognises A4 paper.

Does anyone know how to add Tray 3 via commandline?

Where can I find the options for options for lpadmin or lpoptions?

Got it, run lpoptions -l /Library/Printers/PPDs/Contents/Resources/HP Color LaserJet CP5220d Series.gz against the printer driver. Which will produce all the options.Below is the command to install Tray 3 with A3 paper.

lpadmin -p "105_A3_Paper" -v "socket://10.182.128.74/" -P "/Library/Printers/PPDs/Contents/Resources/HP Color LaserJet CP5220d Series.gz" -o printer-is-shared=false -o Media=A3 -o InputSlot=Tray3 -o sides=one-sided -o HPOption_Tray3=True; cupsenable "105_A3_Paper" -E; cupsaccept "105_A3_Paper";

Also I can configure a Windows share printer
sudo lpadmin -p Art_105_Colour -v smb://8567dip000sf002.detnsw.win/Art%20105%20Colour -P "/Library/Printers/PPDs/Contents/Resources/HP Color LaserJet CP5220d Series.gz" -o printer-is-shared=false -o PageSize=A4 -o InputSlot=Tray2 -o sides=one-sided -o HPOption_Tray3=True -o auth-info-required=negotiate; cupsenable Art_105_Colour -E; cupsaccept Art_105_Colour;
