CPSUI for Raster printer

Hi,
I am developing a driver for a raster printer and I have some questions
regarding the Common Property Sheet UI.
The sample CPSUI given in DDK deals with a PostScript driver. What sort of
changes will be required when developing the same for a Raster Printer
driver?
What is the mechanism of installing custom property sheet dll? I have
assigned the name of my CPSUI dll to the “ConfigFile” parameter in the inf
file. The file is being copied to the correct directory and correct entries
are made in the registry but on clicking the property tab, no property sheet
is displayed. Am I missing something here?
I am new to printer drivers so any info on this subject would be very
helpful.

Thanks in advance,
Reema

You don’t have be too concerned about whether the graphics dll is for a
postscript printer or a raster printer. You can use the oemui sample in
the DDK as a starting point for implementing your interface dll with
CPSUI property sheets.
