解决USB 打印机错误问题

原创文章，转载请与作者联系，谢谢。
最近为公司开发POS机用的热敏打印机驱动，USB接口，当USB printer一插上， WinCE总提示"Unidentified USB device"对话框，
而插入HP和EPSON的打印机就能正确认识，问题很奇怪，没有道理不支持公司的USB Printer啊，没办法，只好查看PB的源代码，
路径为：C:/WINCE420/PUBLIC/COMMON/OAK/DRIVERS/USB/CLASS/PRINTER(注: 根椐所安装PB的路径不同而不同).
问题在 lpc.c文件里的RegisterPrinterSettings(.....)函数中,
原码如下：
//#pragma warning( push )
//#pragma warning( disable : 4706 )
// assignment within conditional expression

/*++ Populates the Registry with our Printer Driver Settings [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/Printers/ "Driver"="pcl.dll"
// names the DLL that contains the printer driver "High Quality"="300"
// the resolution of high-quality mode "Draft Quality"="150?
// the resolution of draft-quality mode (optional) "Color"="Monochrome"
// literal string 揅olor" -or- "Monochrome" --*/

问题分析： 从国外网站的消息来看，应该是Microsoft公司WinCE的一个bug, Microsoft在GetDeviceID()后，开始对Device ID String 进行解析，
而在解析Device id string 时，并没有对MDL分段做提取.
因为按照IEEE-2xxx来说，USB configuration是支持MDL field的，所以应该是USB Printer Class Driver的问题。
此文并没有具体的分析问题如何一步一步怎么解决的，因为写得太麻烦了，
不过一篇文章对很多在写WinCE下的USB驱动开发的XDJM来说，应该有帮助。发现网上有很多人问这个问题，但没有google到答案。
