From the printer control panel, set the paper size and paper type

Linking and unlinking trays

When one linked tray becomes empty, paper feeds from the next linked
tray. We recommend giving all custom paper, such as letterhead and
different colored plain papers, a different custom type name so that
the trays they are in do not automatically link.
