Hints:

In addition to the constants listed for LlPrintSetOption(), there are several modified or additional (read-only) settings:

LL_PRNOPT_COPIES_SUPPORTED

Returns a flag indicating whether the currently selected copies count is supported by the printer (this is usually important for list projects only).

Important: This function will - if successful - set the printer copies in the driver!

If it is not successful, the LL_PRNOPT_COPIES must be set to 1 and the copies must be made manually, if needed.

This option returns the measurement units set in the system settings. Returned values are one of the following constants:

Value	Meaning
LL_UNITS_MM_DIV_10	1/10 mm
LL_UNITS_MM_DIV_100	1/100 mm (default on metric systems)
LL_UNITS_MM_DIV_1000	1/1000 mm
LL_UNITS_INCH_DIV_100	1/100 inch
LL_UNITS_INCH_DIV_1000	1/1000 inch (default on imperial systems)
LL_UNITS_SYSDEFAULT_LORES	Default low resolution on the system
LL_UNITS_SYSDEFAULT_HIRES	Default high resolution on the system
LL_UNITS_SYSDEFAULT	Default resolution on the system

LL_PRNOPT_USE2PASS

Returns if the printing process uses the two-pass method, because the TotalPages$() function has been used.

LL_PRNOPT_PRINTORDER

Returns the print order of the (labels/file cards) in the project. Default: LL_PRINTORDER_HORZ_LTRB (horizontal, from top left to bottom right)

LL_PRNOPT_DEFPRINTERINSTALLED

Returns a flag indicating whether the operating system has a default printer

LL_PRNOPT_JOBID

Use this option after LlPrint() to determine the job number of the print job from the spooler.

This ID can be used with the Windows-API functions to control the execution of the print job.
