Explicit bin extensions

  • Artikkeli

You can further extend an implicit bin extension by using the special construct, BinValue. This object determines which MIB object inside a prtInputTable or prtOutputTable table contains the new data.

Attribute Description
name The name of the bin.
type An enumerator in the BIDI_TYPE enumeration.
drvPrinterEvent (Optional) A Boolean value that indicates whether the port monitor sends notifications to the driver. A TRUE value indicates that the port monitor sends notifications to the driver; FALSE indicates that the port monitor does not send notifications to the driver.
valueId The MIB object in either printmib.prtInput.prtInputTable.prtInputEntry.valueId (input bin) or printmib.prtOutput.prtOutputTable.prtOutputEntry.valueId (output bin).

Code Example

The following code example shows how a BinValue construct can be used to add a new property, Security. This has the effect of extending an implicit bin extension.

<Property name="Layout">
  <Property name="InputBins">
    <InputBin name="TopBin" mibName="TRAY 1">
      <BinValue name="Security" type="BIDI_INT" valueId="19"/>
    </InputBin>
  </Property>
</Property>

The preceding example results in the following query:

\Printer.Layout.InputBins.TopBin:Security

The following code example shows how a BinValue construct can be used to add a Status value. As in the preceding example, this has the effect of extending an implicit bin extension.

<Property name="Finishing">
  <Property name="OutputBins">
    <OutputBin name="TopBin" mibName="STANDARD BIN">
       <BinValue name="Status" type="BIDI_INT" valueId="6"/>
    </OutputBin>
  </Property>
</Property>

The preceding example results in the following query:

\Printer.Finishing.OutputBins.TopBin:Status
