Members
cVersion

Specifies a printer-driver version number.

pName

Points to a null-terminated string that specifies the name of the driver (for example, "QMS 810").

pEnvironment

Points to a null-terminated string that specifies the environment for which the driver was written (for example, "Windows x86" or "Windows NT R4000").

pDriverPath

Points to a null-terminated string that specifies a filename or full path and filename for the file that contains the device driver (for example, "C:\DRIVERS\PSCRIPT.DLL").

pDataFile

Points to a null-terminated string that specifies a filename or a full path and filename for the file that contains driver data (for example, "C:\DRIVERS\QMS810.PPD").

pConfigFile

Points to a null-terminated string that specifies a filename or a full path and filename for the device driver's configuration dynamic-link library (for example, "C:\DRIVERS\PSCRPTUI.DLL").

pHelpFile
Points to a null-terminated string that specifies a filename or a full path and filename for the device driver's help file.

pDependentFiles
Points to a null-terminated string that specifies the files the driver is dependent on. Each filename in the string is also terminated with a null (for example, "PSCRIPT.DLL\0QMS810.PPD\0PSCRPTUI.DLL\0PSPCRIPTUI.HLP\0PSTEST.TXT\0\0").

pMonitorName
Points to a null-terminated string that specifies a language monitor (for example, "PJL monitor"). This member can be NULL and should be specified only for printers capable of bidirectional communication.
