Perhaps it's not the printer, but it a problem with Adobe Reader. The version for Mac does not have the "choose tray by paper size" box to check. Why? Steve Jobs had issues with Flash. Didn't like Flash. Guess who owns Flash? .. You guessed it. Adobe. I have some word from my Apple Geek friends that may be changing in the next few months as Adobe and Apple may reconcile.
I am several years removed from using Apple computers. I became frustrated with the Mac's incompatibility with the business programs I needed to run.
That being said, I have used my Brother 5150 recently with my G4 using both trays to print flyers. But like I said, both are old. But I still use the G4 for church and school projects. I can set the trays by paper color if I choose.
HP, Brother and others have printer drivers that work the same way on Mac that they do on Windows, so all should be good no matter what you buy. The issue is with Adobe.
Perhaps there is someone out there that has experience with the new Apple computers that can update me.
