Does any version of Word allow page definitions to be defined with printer
tray assignments so a multi page merged document will pull the appropriate
paper for each page?

For example, I have a 3 page letter and need to print page 1 on letterhead
and pages 2 and 3 on second page letterhead.

Thanks in advance for your assistance.

I do not believe that there is anything that can be done in the mail merge
operation, but if the merge is executed to a new document, then the
following macro can be used to print each letter as a separate print job and
you then can probably get what you want:

Dim i As Long
With ActiveDocument
For i = 1 To .Sections.Count
.PrintOut Background:=False, Range:=wdPrintFromTo, From:="s" & i, _
To:="s" & i
Next i
End With

Hope this helps.
