SUMMARY
When called to fill the GDIINFO structure from a printer driver, the
DIB_Enable function in DIBENGINE.DLL sets the dpTechnology bit in the
GDIINFO structure to DT_DISPLAY.
MORE INFORMATION
DIB_Enable () in the DIBENGINE.DLL can be called by printer drivers to fill
the GDIINFO structure when the Enable function of the printer driver gets
called by the GDI. However, because the DIBEngine was designed keeping in
mind the display driver, it sets the dpTechnology to DT_DISPLAY.
When the call from the DIB_Enable returns, you must reset the bit to the
appropriate value so the GDI does not interpret the structure as a display
driver structure. Failure to do so may cause General Protection Fault in
GDI.
