| Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| lphIGear | const LPHIGEAR | Array of ImageGear image handles to print. |
| nImageCount | UINT | Number of elements in lphIGear array. |
| dwGrpID | DWORD | Identifier of group from which to get the options for printing for each image. |
| hDC | HDC | Handle of printer device context on which to draw the images. |
| nImagesPerPage | UINT | Number of images that should be placed in a single page. |
| lpImagesLayout | const LPAT_DRECTANGLE | Array of length nImagesPerPage of rectangles where an i-th rectangle specifies how the i-th image of this page is located on that page. Each rectangle is calculated in page-relative units, and as the actual page resolutions are obtained, it translates the rectangles into real coordinates and assigns values to ClipRect according to the following rules: ClipRect.x = lpLayout[i].x*nPageWidth ClipRect.y = lpLayout[i].y*nPageHeight ClipRect.width = lpLayout[i].width*nPageWidth ClipRect.height = lpLayout[i].height*nPageHeight |
| bDirectToDriver | BOOL | If TRUE, then ImageGear does not perform image scaling but uses the operating system's and driver's capabilities for this. If FALSE then ImageGear performs the scaling. |
| lpfnImageSpooled | LPFNIG_IMAGESPOOLED | Callback function that will be called after each image is printed. |
| lpPrivateData | LPVOID | Private data that will be passed to the lpfnImageSpooled callback function in the first parameter. |
Returns the number of ImageGear errors that occurred during this function call.
All pixel formats supported by ImageGear for C and C++.

lpfnImageSpooled function will be called after each image is printed and you can use the lpPrivateData parameter as private data storage. bDirectToDriver parameter allows you to perform image scaling inside of ImageGear or leave this task to the printer driver and operating system. Usually, direct to driver printing (bDirectToDriver=TRUE) results in smaller output size and it works faster, but not using it produces better quality and allows you to use such ImageGear capabilities as anti-aliasing during printing.
