Hello everyboby,
I m new to printer driver.
I want to write a driver that will maintain a text file of all the data that is comming on the printer port to print.
Please suggest me that which sample of DDK should I use and how should I start.
Thanks in advance.

You can use a “language monitor” to intercept the raw data stream. Note
that this will be in the printer’s native tongue; for an HP printer,
you’ll be getting binary PCL commands.

Thanx Tim,
But I want to write a driver for printer that will write all the data coming to the printer for printing in a txt file. So where should I start.

Trivially. Install any PostScript printer and do Print To File. This will
create a text file, in a language called PostScript

The standard “Generic Text Only” printer can do that, and it supports
“print to file”.

Right. That is IMPOSSIBLE. You need to inform your management that
this goal cannot be accomplished. As we have tried to say in many
different ways, there is NO path that works for all printers. In many
printers, for example, the data stream arriving at the print server
doesn’t have recognizable text characters at all – it has all been
converted to bitmaps.

Sorry, non-PostScript printers do not use text. They use binary data flow
from the printing app (or from the spooler service) to the printer.

If you want to write text to file, just for this 1 printer, you could juse
the “Generic / Text only” driver provided with Windows. To write to a file,
you can use the “FILE” port monitor, or you could implement your own port
monitor.
There are examples for port monitors in the DDK. Also if you want to build
you own “text only” driver, you should be able to do so with UNIDRV.
Description on how to develop printer drivers is in the DDK.
Also the Paul Yao Company provides training in printer driver development.
/christoph
Thanx,
Is the driver that will be developed by your suggestion will do both the work of printing and maintaining text file.
If it is not possible then can it happen that first we will redirect it to text file and will then print that file.

Everything is possible (almost).
If you have problems developing your sollution, after reading the DDK and
checking the DDK examples (and playing around with them), I suggest you get
a 3rd party driver developer to implement it for you.
There are several companies specialised in developing printer drivers:

How many people have to tell you before you believe us?
Theoretically, you could hook into the GDI text calls, look for writes
to all printer DCs, and store them. However, even that is not
reliable. It is quite possible for an app to render text into a bitmap,
and then send the bitmap to a printer.

Hello experts,
I want to change the name of the printer driver after control passes from GDI and before Print graphics DLL(printer driver). Where should I trap the event and how?
Thanx in advance.

Hello experts,
I am stuck at point.
My moto is to redirect print job.
When I select “X” printer,print job should be forwarded to “Y” printer.
It means I have to hook CreateDC of “X” printer and pass it the parameter of “Y” printer. Am I right or not.
If I am right, how can I hook it.

First, take what Tim Robert’s posted, and restate it as your own idea
(think that was Tim).
Second, hooking CreateDC is done just like you would hook any other
function - If you
don’t know how too hook, what are you doing writing a driver.
Furthermore, there is a thing
called google in case you’ve never heard of it. This thing called google
can help you find answers
to any type of question you have.
To access this Google technology, you first must open a web browser such
as IE or FireFox.
Once you have a browser open, Locate the URL bar (this will usually be
at the top of the screen
and will have “www.” or “http://” in the first part.
After you have done that, type “http://www.google.com” into this address
bar. Press your “Enter” key now.
After this, you’ll be at a website called Google, on the screen you’ll
see a search box where you can enter
key words. In this box, type in the key words of the subject your
wanting to investigate and select
“Search”. In the page returned, there will be links about how to ‘hook’
a function.
**NOTE** Typing strings like “BIG BIRD” will not return results on
Hooking****
I hope this tutorial in using a search engine helps.

Chirkut,
I havnt got any material on google on this topic(on printer driver).
Second printer driver working is totally different from WDM driver.
But if you think you know everything then try to help other instead of lectures.
thanks.

Chirkut,
Call me whatever you like; it only matters when the person is worth
something…
I havnt got any material on google on this topic(on printer driver).
Perhaps this is because you don’t know how to search… Perhaps it’s
because what you want to do is not
possible, as you were told. And don’t tell me you couldn’t find anything
on hooking, if that is the
case, then your a damn moron - as I suspect.
Second printer driver working is totally different from WDM driver.
no shit sherlock.
But if you think you know everything then try to help other instead of lectures.
When you post, you need to understand you’ll sometimes get ‘colorful’
responses, get use too it… Quit being
a baby…
thanks.
Your welcome,
