DeletePrintProcessor function
The DeletePrintProcessor function removes a print processor added by the AddPrintProcessor function.
Syntax
BOOL DeletePrintProcessor(
_In_ LPTSTR pName,
_In_ LPTSTR pEnvironment,
_In_ LPTSTR pPrintProcessorName
);
Parameters
-
pName [in]
-
A pointer to a null-terminated string that specifies the name of the server from which the processor is to be removed. If this parameter is NULL, the printer processor is removed locally.
-
pEnvironment [in]
-
A pointer to a null-terminated string that specifies the environment from which the processor is to be removed (for example, Windows NT x86, Windows IA64, or Windows x64). If this parameter is NULL, the processor is removed from the current environment of the calling application and client machine (not of the destination application and print server). NULL is the recommended value, as it provides maximum portability.
-
pPrintProcessorName [in]
-
A pointer to a null-terminated string that specifies the name of the processor to be removed.
Return value
If the function succeeds, the return value is a nonzero value.
If the function fails, the return value is zero.
Remarks
Note
This is a blocking or synchronous function and might not return immediately. How quickly this function returns depends on run-time factors such as network status, print server configuration, and printer driver implementation factors that are difficult to predict when writing an application. Calling this function from a thread that manages interaction with the user interface could make the application appear to be unresponsive.
The caller must have the SeLoadDriverPrivilege.
