Return Values

This operation returns information about the capabilities of the currently selected printer to WPRTDATA-CAPABILITIES. Currently, the only capability returned to this parameter is whether or not the printer can print bitmaps. If it can, WPRTDATA-BITMAPS-OK is true. Printers that do not use a raster technology (such as a pen plotter) cannot print bitmaps.
