PIXMA TR8620a How to assign paper types to each feeder

Mac Sequioa / TR8620a / Dual feeders / Differentiate printing

Hi,

Currently using a Mac (Sequioa) with a TR8620a. It has dual feeders, and I want to make the most use of that. I want to be able to put letter paper in the cartridge, and letter sized labels in the rear feeder. The problem is while I can create a custom paper size in the Mac, if I tell the printer it has letter in front and back, it picks the back for anything letter. I tried setting the back to "Other/Other" with a custom paper size, and it didn't take it. 

How can I set it up to control 2 different letter size paper when it doesn't have "Letter1" and "Letter2"

 

Thanks
