Set Printer Properties

PrintPRO™ maintains a collection of Printers. PrintPRO enables the user to change these printers' properties, either programmatically or through the printer dialog. (If the printer properties are not modified, the printer's default settings will be in effect.)

While a print job is in progress, the printer settings cannot be modified.

Set Up Printer Properties Using a Dialog

To enable an application end-user to change printer properties, call the Printer.SetupDialog method. A dialog is displayed enabling the user to change the printer's properties.

Set Up Printer Properties Programmatically

Access the properties within the Printer class to programmatically set the printer properties. If the printer does not support the feature (e.g. Duplex), then the property setting will be ignored.
