SUMMARY
To debug a print driver with a 32-bit application such as Write or Notepad,
you have to use the Kernel debugger (WDEB386.EXE) shipped with Microsoft
WIN32 SDK.
MORE INFORMATION
Windows 95 printer drivers are 16-bit DLLs. However, most of the
applications shipped with the Windows 95 operating system are 32-bit.
Codeview for Windows is not capable of loading a 32-bit application.
However, you can use Codeview for Windows to debug the print driver along
with a 16-bit application. For more information on how to use and set up
Codeview or Kernel Debugger, please refer to the documentation available in
the Windows SDK.
