Detailed Description
Provides access to a store containing printer specification data.
Printer specification data is held as a direct file store, and usually has a .pdr file type.
A printer driver is implemented as two files: a PDR file containing the printer specification data and a PDL file containing the code to link the printer with the graphics printing system.
The printer specification data is generated by compiling a text file (a .pd file type) using the pdrtran tool. Printer specification data defines:
the name of the associated PDL
a list of one or more models supported by this driver, identified by name and UID
device information such as the size of the device, typeface information for each model, including which typefaces are supported, the heights available in each typeface and the width of each character in a font.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation
◆ ~CPrinterDriver()
| IMPORT_C CPrinterDriver::~CPrinterDriver | ( | ) |
Destructor.
It frees all resources owned by the object, prior to its destruction. In particular, it closes the printer specification data store and any open session with the file server.
(generated from Symbian Developer Library)
Member Function Documentation
◆ Close()
| IMPORT_C void CPrinterDriver::Close | ( | ) |
Closes the printer specification data store and frees resources.
An open session with the file server remains open.
(generated from Symbian Developer Library)
◆ CreatePrinterDeviceL()
| IMPORT_C CPrinterDevice * CPrinterDriver::CreatePrinterDeviceL | ( | TUid | aModelUid | ) |
Creates the physical graphics device to be used for printing.
- Parameters
-
aModelUid The UID of a specific model which is defined in the printer specification data.
(generated from Symbian Developer Library)
◆ CreatePrinterDriverUIL()
| IMPORT_C CPrinterDriverUI * CPrinterDriver::CreatePrinterDriverUIL | ( | ) |
Constructs a printer specific user interface.
The user interface object is optional, but if it exists, it is implemented as part of a UDL (i.e. a UI DLL).
(generated from Symbian Developer Library)
◆ Model()
| IMPORT_C TPrinterModelEntry CPrinterDriver::Model | ( | TInt | aNum | ) | const |
Gets the specified printer model.
- Parameters
-
aNum An index into the list of printer models defined in the printer specification data.
(generated from Symbian Developer Library)
◆ NewL()
|
static |
Constructs, and returns a pointer to a new instance for accessing a printer specification data store.
(generated from Symbian Developer Library)
◆ NumModels()
| IMPORT_C TInt CPrinterDriver::NumModels | ( | ) | const |
Gets the number of printer models defined by the printer specification.
(generated from Symbian Developer Library)
◆ OpenPdrL()
| IMPORT_C void CPrinterDriver::OpenPdrL | ( | const TDesC & | aName | ) |
Opens the specified printer specification data store.
(generated from Symbian Developer Library)
◆ PrinterDevice()
