AddPrinterDriver
The AddPrinterDriver function installs a local or remote printer driver and links the
configuration, data, and driver files.
BOOL AddPrinterDriver(
LPTSTR pName,
| // pointer to server name
| DWORD Level,
| // printer info. structure level
| LPBYTE pDriverInfo
| // pointer to printer info. structure
| );
|
|
Parameters
pName
Pointer to a null-terminated string that specifies the name of the server on
which the driver should be installed.
If pName is NULL, the driver will be installed locally.
Level
Specifies the version of the structure to which pDriverInfo points.
This value can be either 2 or 3.
pDriverInfo
Pointer to either a DRIVER_INFO_2 structure or a DRIVER_INFO_3 structure. If Level is 2, this parameter receives a DRIVER_INFO_2 structure. If Level is 3, this parameter receives a DRIVER_INFO_3 structure.
If the pEnvironment member of the structure pointed to by pDriverInfo is NULL, the current environment of the caller/client (not of the
destination/server) is used.
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 an application calls the AddPrinterDriver function, all files required by the driver must be copied to the system's
printer-driver directory. An application can retrieve the name of this directory by
calling the GetPrinterDriverDirectory function.
An application can determine which printer drivers are currently installed by
calling the EnumPrinterDrivers function.

Nostalgia .Net |
|
.Net is powerful, but not all-powerful, so sometimes we need to use Win32 API for our .Net applications. 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. Net classes. More » |
