The pcl command to select paper source is <esc>&l#H and
the values of # are somewhat consistent, but can vary
amongst different model-ranges of pcl printers.

First place is to consult the standard pcl 5 documentation and
then find the particular technical programming info for your
printer model where specific values can be found.

The original pcl5 specs only documented values 0-6, but over
the years I have found uses for 7, 8, 20, 21...

And unfortunately, different values work for different printers
to select what you would expect are the same tray#.
