    Installation Samples

    The Printer Driver Resource Toolkit includes InstallShield, MSI, InstallShield MSI, VB.NET, C# and WIX Installation sample projects which install and configure the Black Ice printer driver. The installation sample projects are provided as starting points for creating user specific printer driver installations.

Black Ice printer drivers can be installed or uninstalled using a single function call from the appropriate DLL.

    The Install Shield project included in the Resource Toolkit was generated with Install Shield 12 and in order to rebuild the sample installation package, Install Shield 12 or newer is required. The MSI Installer is written using Visual Studio.

    Multiple Instances of Black Ice printer drivers can be installed on a single system, allowing for increased file processing.
