Siggel,

You will need to use the Win32 API calls specifically designed for this.  It doesn't make sense for Debenu Quick PDF Library to reproduce every possible printer API function as we need to focus on core PDF features.

These links will help you get started.

Remember that the DEVMODE structure used in SetupCustomerPrinter is not always respected by printer driver manufacturers and some drivers use their own custom DEVMODE settings for Duplex, collation etc..

Hi there,
is there a counterpart function to SetupCustomPrinter to obtain supported printer qualities (like GetPrinterBins for supported bins)?
Some printers support 300 and 600 dpi, others 600 dpi only, or ink jets 360 or 720 dpi only. So given e.g. a minimum target quality of 600 dpi, how do I know what resolution to provide in SetupCustomPrinter?
Best regards,
