why the code give me 2 default printers ? (in control panel, I have 4
printer connected on the LAN, when I set the param to PRINTER_ENUM_LOCAL,
the code can give me all the 4.), I thought it should be one. the s1 shows
the windows default printer, s is just another printer , how can I just get
the only window defaulter ?
I used the following code:
char *buffer;
char *s, *s1;
buffer = (char *)malloc(PORT_BUF_SIZE);
DWORD count, needed;
EnumPrintersA(PRINTER_ENUM_CONNECTIONS |
PRINTER_ENUM_DEFAULT,//PRINTER_ENUM_LOCAL,
NULL, 1, NULL, 0, &needed, &count);
char *enumbuffer;
enumbuffer = (char *)malloc(needed);
EnumPrintersA(PRINTER_ENUM_CONNECTIONS | PRINTER_ENUM_DEFAULT,
file://PRINTER_ENUM_LOCAL
NULL, 1, (LPBYTE)enumbuffer, needed, &needed, &count);
PRINTER_INFO_1 *prinfo;
prinfo = (PRINTER_INFO_1 *)enumbuffer;
s = (char *)prinfo[0].pName;
s1 = (char *)prinfo[1].pName;
