Disable Printer Property Pages

NTDEV
1

I am using a unidrv based printer driver with a custom ui. Is it possible
to disable the pages on the driver properties ie Color Management and
Sharing. I have to implement this on W2K, and saw that HideStandardUI
wasn’t available on it. If possible I would like to just display a simple
‘About Box’ when the user enters into the printer properties and not display
any settings available to be changed. Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks,
Keith

Hi Keith…
I think you need to modify this in unidrv.dll code, that
will make the UI of color management tab to disappear. I didnt remember
exactly, but sure you need to concentrate on color related things in
unidrv.dll code.

Thanks

Thanks for the response. Right now I’m looking at disabling by hooking
inside the ui tab and grabbing the window handle of the display property
dialog and removing the pages through that. Any drawbacks through that
method? Also that may work for color, but what about disabling the printer
sharing tab if I am doing it through the unidrv.dll code?

Thanks,
Keith
