SetPort
[New
- Windows NT]
The SetPort
function sets the status associated with a printer port.
BOOL SetPort(
LPTSTR pName, |
// pointer to a
printer server name |
LPTSTR pPortName, |
// pointer to a
printer port name |
DWORD dwLevel, |
// version of
PORT_INFO_* structure |
LPBYTE pPortInfo |
// pointer to a
PORT_INFO_* structure |
); |
|
Parameters
pName
Pointer to a
zero-terminated string that specifies the name of the printer server to which
the port is connected. Set this parameter to NULL if the port is on the local machine.
pPortName
Pointer to a
zero-terminated string that specifies the name of the printer port.
dwLevel
Specifies the
type of PORT_INFO_* structure pointed to by the pPortInfo parameter.
This value
must be 3, which corresponds to a PORT_INFO_3 data structure.
pPortInfo
Pointer to a PORT_INFO_3
Return Values
If the
function succeeds, the return value is nonzero.
If the
function fails, the return value is zero. To get extended error information,
call GetLastError
Remarks
The caller of
the SetPort function must have SERVER_ACCESS_ADMINISTER access to the
server to which the port is connected.
When you set
a printer port status value with the severity value PORT_STATUS_TYPE_ERROR, the
print spooler stops sending jobs to the port. The print spooler resumes sending
jobs to the port when the port status is cleared by another call to SetPort.
