Resources Used for Printing Extensions and Printer Drivers
Six resources are used for both printing extensions and printer drivers and are described in this section.
- The override (
'over') resource defines which of the printing messages your printing extension or printer driver is overriding. All printing extensions and printer drivers must have this resource.- The version (
'vers') resource defines with which version of QuickDraw GX your printing extension or printer driver is compatible. All printing extensions and printer drivers must have at least one version resource that is used for this purpose.- The status (
'stat') resource defines status messages for display to the user in the desktop printer window during the printing of a job.- The printing alert (
'plrt') resource defines alert messages that are displayed in printing alert boxes when a user's attention is required during the printing of a job.- The tray count (
'tray') resource specifies how many paper trays your printing extension or printer driver supports.- A tray name (
'tryn') resource specifies the name of each paper tray.
