AddPrintProcessor

The AddPrintProcessor function installs a print processor on the specified server and adds the print-processor name to an internal list of supported print processors.

BOOL AddPrintProcessor(

LPTSTR pName,	// pointer to server name
LPTSTR pEnvironment,	// pointer to environment name
LPTSTR pPathName,	// pointer to path
LPTSTR pPrintProcessorName	// pointer to print-processor name
);

Parameters
pName

Pointer to a null-terminated string that specifies the name of the server on which the print processor should be installed. If this parameter is NULL, the print processor is installed locally.

pEnvironment

Pointer to a null-terminated string that specifies the environment. For example, "Windows x86" specifies Windows running on an Intel 80386 or 80486 processor. If this parameter is NULL, the current environment of the caller/client (not of the destination/server) is used.

pPathName

Pointer to a null-terminated string that specifies the name of the file that contains the print processor. This file must be in the system print-processor directory.

pPrintProcessorName

Pointer to a null-terminated string that specifies the name of the print processor.

Return Values
If the function succeeds, the return value is nonzero.

If the function fails, the return value is zero. To get extended error information, call GetLastError.

Remarks
Before calling the AddPrintProcessor function, an application should verify that the file containing the print processor is stored in the system print-processor directory. An application can retrieve the name of the system print-processor directory by calling the GetPrintProcessorDirectory function.

An application can determine the name of existing print processors by calling the EnumPrintProcessors function.

It's simple enough with Platform Invoke if you have Win32 skill, but we do not always have time to dig the ancient documentation, declare the special types that are compatible with Win32, find the values of the Win32's constants and so on. Nostalgia .Net offers several simple-to-use classes, and components that will allow you to forget about the headache of Win32 and just use the power of Win32 in your application the same way as you use the native.
