Default How do I change the paper source when printing labels in Word?

When I print labels in Word, the paper source is the single sheet feeder
(SSF), which requires that I feed each page into the printer one by one. I
would like to change this to Tray 1. I have gone into Printer Properties and
changed the paper souce to Tray 1 and also turned on the option of 'overwrite
paper souce setting in application'.
When I go into Word Options/Advanced the 'Print' section states that the
default tray is Tray 1. Despite all of this, when I print, the printer still
requires the paper to be fed into the SSF.
Does anyone know what else I need to do?
