Printer Status in Citect

Anonymous

Version
1.0

Requirements
CitectSCADA v5.2

Description
This is a CitectSCADA 32 bit driver which can be used to read the printing status of the printer specified in Citect.ini.

The user can issue a command to delete/pause/resume the print job. The CitectSCADA 5.20 Example Project shows all the information read and has buttons to delete/resume/pause print jobs.

Installation:
1) Copy Printer.dbf, Protdir.dbf & Printer.dll to the /Citect/Bin directory
2) Update the Citect.ini file to include the following lines
[printer]
Name=HP Laserjet
3) Restore the Printer.ctz project in CitectSCADA v5.2x

Additional Comments:
In this driver, instead of using normal DLL call from Cicode, I have used Citect DDK to issue the Win32 function from within the CitectSCADA driver itself. This could added to the point count in a CitectSCADA system.
