Examples

The following code example shows how the parameter element can be used to generate a complete event notification message.

In this example, the stringID values specify the following:

User interface string 100 in the driver resource DLL is "Printer is out of %1 ink; please open %2 and replace the ink cartridge."
User interface string 5 in the Microsoft-supplied user interface DLL is "yellow".
User interface string 1002 in the driver resource DLL is "Side Access Door B".

<?xml version="1.0" ?>
   <asyncPrintUIRequest
    xmlns="https://schemas.microsoft.com/2003/print/asyncui/v1/request">
    <v1>
      <requestOpen>
        <balloonUI iconID="1" resourceDll="IHV.dll">
          <title stringID="1234" resourceDll="IHV.dll" />
          <body stringID="100" resourceDll="IHV.dll">
            <parameter stringID="5" />
            <parameter stringID="1002" resourceDll="IHV.dll" />
          </body>
        </balloonUI>
      </requestOpen>
    </v1>
  </asyncPrintUIRequest>

With the preceding XML code, the following body text (stringID="100") is displayed in the event notification message: "Printer is out of yellow ink; please open Side Access Door B and replace the ink cartridge."
