如何在 Windows NT 和 Windows 2000 中使用自定义页面大小打印
定义或选择页面大小的 DEVMODE 成员
打印机将其默认设置存储在名为 DEVMODE 的结构中。定义或选择页面大小时，可能会涉及此结构的四个成员：- dmPaperSize
- dmPaperLength
- dmPaperWidth
- dmFormName
因此，在运行 Windows 95、Windows 98 或 Windows Me 系统上，可以用高度（长度）和宽度或预定义的纸张大小来定义自定义页面大小。基于 Windows NT 或 Windows 2000 的系统仅使用定义的页形来指定页面大小，您可以通过以下两种方式来进行选择：设置 dmFormName ，或将一个“常量”值赋给 dmPaperSize。
若要在 Windows NT 或 Windows 2000 系统上使用特定的纸张大小，则必须为其定义一个页形。Visual Basic 中的 Printer 对象具有 PageSize、 Height 和 Width 属性，对应于 DEVMODE 的 dmPaperSize、 dmPaperLength 和 dmPaperWidth 成员。但是， Printer 对象未提供按名称选择页形的方式，而且也未提供在运行时添加自定义页形的方法。我们必须使用 Win32 应用程序编程接口 (API) 来创建自定义页形，和/或按名称选择页形。
如何通过编程方式选择页形
本文使用 EnumForms 基本进程来列出当前打印机支持的所有页形，并检查每个页形的高度和宽度。如果找到了指定的大小，将选择该大小。如果未找到指定的大小，代码将添加该页形，然后选择它。有三种方法可以通过编程方式选择页形：
- 检索打印机的 DEVMODE 结构，设置dmFormName 成员，并使用ResetDC 函数将此页形设置为打印机设备上下文 (DC) 的当前页形。选择此页形作为 DC 的当前页形时，它仅对调用进程有效，而不会更改驱动程序的默认设置。这不需要任何特殊权限。对于需要更改打印机设置的应用程序，建议使用此方法。
- 调用SetForm 函数更改打印机驱动程序的默认页形。使用此方法时，需要具有对该驱动程序的完全访问权限。更改了默认页形后，将影响所有使用该驱动程序进行打印的应用程序。对于网络打印机，多数用户都没有执行此调用所必需的权限。
- 将自定义页形的系统定义值赋给Printer.PaperSize。
使用 AddForm 函数添加自定义页形时，将为该页形分配它自己的编号（如果可用）。此编号对于使用该页形的所有打印机将一直保持一致。这样，就在当前系统上为该页形定义并分配了一个“常量”值。之后，即可通过将该值赋给 Printer.PaperSize 来选择该页形。但是，由于分配的编号只是简单地在添加该页形时列出的当前打印机页形数上加一，因此该编号可能会因某个预定义页形已经使用了该编号而不可用。因此，不建议使用此值来选择页形，所以本文中未演示使用此值的方法。如果使用分配的编号，但该值不可用，则可能会选择错误的页形或引发运行时错误 380：“Invalid Property Value.”
页形来源和函数
多数页形都由操作系统定义，而且对所有本地打印机都可用。但网络打印机的页形在打印机服务器上定义。某些页形可能是专为特定打印机驱动程序定义的，因此只出现在该驱动程序的列表中。页形的另一个来源是自定义或用户定义的页形。这些页形可以手动创建，或通过代码创建，并且对系统上的所有本地打印机都可用。特定于打印机的页形和用户定义的页形都存储在注册表中。本文中的示例使用了几个与页形相关的函数调用。下表简要地列出了主要的函数：
收起该表格
| 函数 | 说明 |
|---|---|
| EnumForms | 返回当前打印机支持的所有页形的信息。 |
| AddForm | 在系统中添加一个自定义页形。该页形上的数据存储在注册表中。因此，自定义页形对所有打印机都可用，而不是仅对添加该页形时的当前打印机可用。系统分配给该页形的数字值只是简单地在EnumForms 返回的当前打印机页形数上加一。必须具有对该驱动程序的完全访问权限才能调用此函数。如果不能手动添加页形，此函数也会失败。因此，通常不能在网络打印机上使用此函数。 |
| DeleteForm | 删除一个自定义页形。但是，此函数不会删除操作系统定义的标准页形。如果尝试删除标准页形，将返回错误代码 87。此函数需要的权限与AddForm 函数相同。 |
虽然示例中未使用以下函数，但却包含这些函数的声明：
收起该表格
| 函数 | 说明 |
|---|---|
| GetForm | 检索有关特定页形的信息。 |
| SetForm | 设置指定打印机的默认页形信息。此函数需要完全访问权限，就像更改任何打印机驱动程序设置一样。 |
必须强调这些函数中有一些需要对打印机的完全控制权限。因此，对于安装为“网络打印机”的打印机， SetForm、 AddForm 和 DeleteForm 函数几乎根本不可用。这是因为网络打印机的驱动程序未安装在本地，而是安装在打印机服务器上，而您的用户帐户不太可能在打印机服务器上具有 Administrator 权限。但在 Windows 95、Windows 98 或 Windows Me 系统上情况有所不同。在这些系统上，所有打印机驱动程序（甚至网络打印机）始终都安装在本地。然而，可以在 Windows NT 或 Windows 2000 上将网络打印机安装为本地打印机，并将“端口”设置为打印机队列。这样，您就可以使用这些函数来进行更改，而不会影响共享该打印机的其他用户。
为网络打印机添加本地打印机驱动程序的步骤
- 在开始菜单上，指向设置，然后单击打印机。双击添加打印机 ，启动“添加打印机向导”。
- 向导提示时，一定要单击本地打印机 -或- 我的电脑 ，而不要选择网络打印机。虽然将连接到一台网络打印机，但要使用“我的电脑”上的驱动程序。单击下一步以继续。
- 在 Windows NT 上，单击添加端口。在 Windows 2000 上，单击创建新端口。
- 在下拉列表框中，单击本地端口。在 Windows NT 上，单击新端口。在 Windows 2000 上，单击下一步，然后向导将提示您输入端口名。
- 键入该打印机在网络上的位置。例如：
\\printserver\printername（请用指向该打印机的实际路径名替换）。
- 单击确定，完成该向导。
重要说明 使用自定义页面大小时，在激光或喷墨式打印机和点阵或撞击式打印机上的现象有所不同。很明显，没有打印机会接受比它实际能够容纳的纸张大小还要宽的页面大小。但使用连续送纸机制的打印机对页面大小的限制很灵活，因为这种打印机每次打印一行。而激光和喷墨打印机每次却打印一页。因此，在打印到点阵打印机（这种打印机使用连续送纸机制）时，很容易就可以在换页时看到页面长度，因为打印机会将纸张向前送动它认为下一页的顶端开始的位置，而不管所用纸张的实际大小有多大。在激光和喷墨打印机上，换页时通常会弹出一整页打印纸，而不管它所识别的页面大小有多大。此外，在多数激光打印机上，让打印机在用户定义的页面大小上打印时，显示屏上将显示“Load Custom（装入自定义大小纸张）”，或类似提示。
分步示例
- 将一台本地打印机设置为默认打印机。为此，请按照下列步骤操作：
- 在开始 菜单上，指向设置，然后单击打印机。
- 右键单击一台本地打印机的图标，然后单击设为默认值。
- 在 Visual Basic 中启动一个新的标准 EXE 工程。默认情况下将创建 Form1。
- 在 Form1 上添加三个命令按钮和一个列表框。s
- 将以下代码粘贴到 Form1 的模块中：
Option Explicit Private Sub Command1_Click() Dim FormName As String FormName = "MyCustomForm" ' Use special, user-defined form. UseForm FormName End Sub Private Sub Command2_Click() Dim FormName As String ' Get FormName from the ListBox. On Error GoTo ListBoxERR ' Trap for no selection. FormName = Mid(List1.Text, 1, InStr(1, List1.Text, " -") - 1) On Error GoTo 0 ' Turn off Error trap. UseForm FormName Exit Sub ListBoxERR: MsgBox "Select a printer from the ListBox before using this option.", _ vbExclamation End Sub Private Sub Command3_Click() Dim RetVal As Long Dim PrinterHandle As Long ' Handle to printer Dim PrinterName As String Dim FormName As String Dim Continue As Long ' Delete form that is selected in ListBox. PrinterName = Printer.DeviceName ' Current printer If OpenPrinter(PrinterName, PrinterHandle, 0&) Then On Error GoTo ListBoxERR ' Trap for no selection. FormName = Mid(List1.Text, 1, InStr(1, List1.Text, " -") - 1) On Error GoTo 0 ' Turn off Error trap. Continue = MsgBox("Are you sure you want to permanently remove " & _ FormName & " from " & PrinterName & "?", vbYesNo) If Continue = vbYes Then RetVal = DeleteForm(PrinterHandle, FormName & Chr(0)) If RetVal <> 0 Then ' DeleteForm succeeded.

FormItem = PtrCtoVbString(.pName) & " - " & .Size.cx / 1000 & _ " mm X " & .Size.cy / 1000 & " mm (" & I + 1 & ")" List1.AddItem FormItem End With Next I ClosePrinter (PrinterHandle) End If End Sub Private Sub UseForm(FormName As String) Dim RetVal As Integer RetVal = SelectForm(FormName, Me.hwnd) Select Case RetVal Case FORM_NOT_SELECTED ' 0 ' Selection failed! MsgBox "Unable to retrieve From name", vbExclamation, _ "Operation halted!" Case FORM_SELECTED ' 1 ' Selection succeeded! PrintTest ' Comment this line to avoid printing Case FORM_ADDED ' 2 ' Form added and selected. List1.Clear ' Reflect the addition in the ListBox Form_Load ' by rebuilding the list. End Select End Sub - 在工程 菜单上，添加一个新模块，Module1。

- 单击列表框中的新自定义页形，然后单击Command3。程序将提示您是否确定要删除该页形。如果单击是，程序将删除该自定义页形。如果尝试删除预定义的页形，将引发错误 87，因为只有自定义页形可以删除。
