No, probably no impossibility. But I don't see a chance of having your
modifications integrated for this particular feature.
I cannot imagine that people will find it more comfortable to manually
choose the paper tray each time, remembering the page range to choose
for what paper-tray.
I cannot imagine that many people need this to begin with.
Why not run <ctrl>+p, set print and paper tray for first part, click
"send", and <ctrl>+p another time for different paper tray?
Or for you would be much simpler to create a mini-extension that would
just prompt for the page-range(s) and corresponding tray and then
create those multiple print-jobs for you.
ciao
Christian
