Supported PrGeneral Opcodes

The Carbon Printing Manager provides the PMGeneral function as a replacement for the original PrGeneral function. However, Apple suggests that you reduce your reliance on these functions because they are not currently supported by all printer drivers, and because they are not likely to be supported in future versions of the Mac OS.

The following table lists PrGeneral opcodes that are supported in Carbon. For opcodes that have an associated accessor function, you use that function instead of passing the opcode to PMGeneral . For example, use PMGetOrientation instead of passing the getRotnOp constant to PMGeneral . The PMGeneral function returns the kPMNotImplemented result code for any unsupported opcodes, and for opcodes that now have accessor functions.
