SUMMARY

The Windows 95 DDK documentation for DrvSetPrinterData incorrectly states that: 

   DrvSetPrinterData returns TRUE if successful; otherwise, returns FALSE.
The DrvSetPrinterData returns FALSE if successful, otherwise, it returns TRUE.

MORE INFORMATION

The return value that the driver should be checking after the DrvSetPrinterData() call is ERROR_SUCCESS which is defined in WINDOWS.H in the \DDK\INC16 directory. For more information regarding the usage of this function in a printer driver refer to the HPPLOT sample in the Windows 95 DDK. The source for the driver can be found in the \DDK\PRINTER\SAMPLES\HPPLOT directory.
