PC_PRINTER_DEFAULT_PROPERTIES

Sets one or more of the properties of the default printer for all PC_PRINTER_ routines.

Syntax:

call "PC_PRINTER_DEFAULT_PROPERTIES" using by value     flags
                                           by reference properties
                                           returning    status-code

Parameters

flags
Using call prototype (see Library Routines - Key) : cblt-os-flags
Picture: Numeric literal, pic x(4) comp-5, or pic x(8) comp-5 (64-bit native programs only).
