[cups.general] JobSheets printed from a different input tray

All,

I've recently upgraded from CUPS 1.3.7 to 1.4.3 and found that my 
Postscript banner page no longer prints on the colored paper from a 
reserved tray in my printers.  I used to include a line like the 
following in my custom banner page that works for our HP printers:
<</ManualFeed false /MediaClass(Upper) /MediaPosition 0 
/MediaType(Color)>> setpagedevice

This no longer works under 1.4.3.

Is there another way to force banner pages to print on paper from a 
specific input tray?  Banner pages are almost useless if we can't 
quickly spot them and separate print jobs.

Thanks for any tips on how to get this working!

Steve
