Don't they work with the hp_lj4 ones?
I think that there are some hp_lj5 as well... otherwise you'll have to buid one or ask if someone already has one...

Victor,
They work with the HPlj5 but I need to have drivers for all 5 bins.
Has anybody got them or know how to make them ?

I think there are 2 options for this:
1. find the specific escape sequences for selecting each tray and then try to incorporate them into your custom hp_lj_1 - 5 (more tricky but it's feasible - I haven't had a go with printer drivers yet).
2. Use direct printing and use the same hp_lj5 driver but 5 different printers were each one uses it's own queue that uses it's own tray (easier to implement).

In your printer's technical manual you can find the escape sequences or on HP.com. Here is an example of changing the bin. The only difference is the 1 and 5. You can change this value from 0 to 9.
initpr=\EE\E&l26a66F\E(12U\E(s10H\E&l5H\E(s0p10h0s0b4099T\E&k11.6H,
initpr=\EE\E&l26a66F\E(12U\E(s10H\E&l1H\E(s0p10h0s0b4099T\E&k11.6H,
Be aware that you're tray has the same papersize as you define in Baan. In some HP printers there is a small (blue?) wheel on the outside or inside of the tray that you can change to the proper papersize. If this is papersize "letter" and you define papersize "A4" in Baan this tray will NOT work and the printer will take its paper from the default tray!

Marc,
Thanks for the help.
Problem is now solved via userfonts.
