Microsoft Windows 印刷スキーマ には、柔軟で拡張可能な PrintCapabilities 要素と PrintTicket 要素が含まれています。 前者は印刷デバイスの機能を明細化し、後者はデバイスがドキュメント、個々のドキュメント、または個々のページの特定のシーケンスに関してこれらの機能をどのように使用するかを指定します。
印刷をサポートするアプリケーションの一般的な一連のタスクは次のようになります。
プリンターの機能を決定します。
これらの機能を使用するように PrintTicket を構成します。
PrintTicketを検証します。
この記事では、これを行う方法について説明します。
例
次の簡単な例では、プリンターが両面印刷 (両面印刷) をサポートできるかどうかにのみ関心があります。 主な手順は次のとおりです。
PrintCapabilities メソッドを使用してGetPrintCapabilities オブジェクトを取得します。
目的の機能が存在するかをテストします。 次の例では、DuplexingCapability オブジェクトのPrintCapabilitiesプロパティを使い、用紙の長辺に沿ってページをめくる形で両面印刷ができるかどうかをテストします。 DuplexingCapabilityはコレクションであるため、
Contains
のReadOnlyCollection<T>メソッドを使用します。注
この手順は厳密には必要ありません。 以下で使用する MergeAndValidatePrintTicket メソッドは、 PrintTicket の各要求をプリンターの機能と照合します。 要求された機能がプリンターでサポートされていない場合、プリンター ドライバーは、メソッドによって返される PrintTicket の代替要求を置き換える。
プリンターが二重化をサポートしている場合、サンプル コードは二重化を要求する PrintTicket を作成します。 ただし、アプリケーションは、 PrintTicket 要素で使用可能なすべてのプリンター設定を指定するわけではありません。 プログラマとプログラムの両方の時間が無駄になります。 代わりに、このコードは両面印刷の要求のみを設定し、このPrintTicketを、完全に構成および検証された既存のPrintTicketと、ユーザーの既定のPrintTicketにマージします。
したがって、このサンプルでは、 MergeAndValidatePrintTicket メソッドを呼び出して、新しい最小 PrintTicket をユーザーの既定の PrintTicketにマージします。 これにより、プロパティの 1 つとして新しいValidationResultを含むPrintTicketが返されます。
次に、新しい PrintTicket がデュプレックスを要求することをテストします。 その場合、サンプルはユーザーの新しい既定の印刷チケットになります。 上記の手順 2 が省略されていて、プリンターが長い側に沿った二重化をサポートしていない場合、テストは
false
になります。 (上記の注意事項を参照してください。最後の重要な手順は、UserPrintTicket メソッドを使用して、PrintQueueの Commit プロパティに変更をコミットすることです。
