DOCERR: Printer Entries in WIN.INI

ID: Q92414


The information in this article applies to:
  • Microsoft Windows Device Development Kit (DDK) for Windows, version 3.1


SUMMARY

Section 4.1.12 (page 119) of the Windows version 3.1 DDK's "Device Driver Adaptation Guide" manual instructs printer driver developers to store all information for printer fonts under the [drvname,port] section and not the [modelname,port] section. This is incorrect.

Ideally, all font information should go into [modelname,port]. For drivers using the shipped HPPCL font installer (FINSTALL.DLL), font information for soft fonts and external cartridges should be written to [drvname,port], and all other font information should be written to [modelname,port].
