Redirect
Printing
Printer
Driver Resource Toolkit

Redirect printing
provides the user with the ability to print to the Black Ice Printer
Driver and simultaneously redirect printing to an additional printer.
This provides the opportunity to print to a physical printer
at the same time that the Black Ice Printer is generating an image.
This unique printer driver technology is available only from Black
Ice Software.
Redirect printing
is available for the NT/2000/XP and Terminal Server printer drivers
from Black Ice Software. It
is possible to specify any available printer to redirect the printing
to, including shared printers on the network.
The Black Ice Printer Driver can also be forced to use the
settings of the redirect printer such as Resolution, Paper size,
Physical paper margins, etc..
This simple but powerful option guaranties that the redirected
printing is identical to the image created by the Black Ice Printer
Driver.
The Redirect
Printing sample is provided in the Windows NT/Win2000/XP
Resource Toolkits as a sample application, including source code.
Redirect Printing can be used with any Black Ice Printer
installed on the system. To
select or change which Black Ice Printer Driver is used press the
“Change" button located on the top right of the window.

The “Enable redirect
printing to another printer" check box is not set in the demonstration
version of the printer driver. To try redirect printing check the
box and select one of the printer available in you system.
A list of available printers is supplied in the drop down
box.
If you want to make
sure that the image and the redirected document have the same settings,
check the “Use the physical printer settings" check box.
This will force the Black Ice Printer driver to use the same
settings as the destination redirect printer driver.
Press the “Save" button to save the redirect settings.
The
Resource Toolkit contains the full source code for the sample written
in C++.
