Black Ice Printer Drivers

The Black Ice printer drivers can start an application either before printing starts or after printing has completed. Starting an application before or after printing allows developers to capture printer driver messages, post process generated files and more.

If the application is started before the printing starts, the launched application can wait for the messages sent by the printer driver. When the application is started after printing has finished, a custom application can read the command line parameters of the generated group file, which will contain all of the necessary information about the generated files.

The order of the parameters passed to the started application can be changed, and unnecessary parameters can be removed from the parameter list. Additionally, using the Custom parameter, the Black Ice printer driver can pass any character string to the launched application.
