Printer drivers that support more than one model should now record current printer settings for each model even if the models use the same port. A driver records the printer settings for a given model by adding to the WIN.INI file a section having the following form:
[ModelName, Port]
The ModelName specifies the name of the model and Port specifies the output port current associated with the printer as shown in the following example:
[HP LaserJet IIID, LPT2]
This section must include all printer settings except printer fonts. To record font information, the driver must add a section having the following form:
[DeviceName, Port]
The DeviceName specifies the name of the device and the port specifies the name of the output port associated with the device as shown in the following example:
[HPPCL5A, LPT1]
This section only lists fonts, including those in external cartridges. Also this section ensures backward compatibility with third-party font packages that use this section to add fonts.
