Public BatteryLifeTime As System.UInt32
The full declaration is:
Private Declare Auto Function GetSystemPowerStatus Lib "kernel32.dll" ( _
ByRef lpSystemPowerStatus As SYSTEM_POWER_STATUS) _
As Integer
Private Structure SYSTEM_POWER_STATUS
Public BatteryLifeTime As System.UInt32
What I don't understand is, what measurement do the "BatteryLifeTime As System.UInt32" is in? I mean, is the Battery life Time in seconds or hours.. Or something else, so how can I convert it to something I can use..

View 5 RepliesI know that you can return the length of a string, which results in the number of characters and spaces. Is there a way to return a width of the string in say, pixels,inches or some unit of measurement.

View 3 RepliesI have printer vendor provided SDK implementing that i can get printer DEVMODE or HDC with correct printer settings.
My questions is:

I already tried using the "PrintDocument.SetDevMode". it seems not be working.
1. Detect if my printer is busy, because my code tells the printer to print more pages that it can cope with, so I need to delay the command for 'Print the next page' until the printer has finished printing the previous one.
2. Shift the output to my printer so that it gets printed in it's entirety on the paper, instead of seemingly being anchored to some nebulous point on the A4 page. It starts printing at X = 29mm from the left edge, and Y is 28mm from the top, and stops at X = 22mm from the right edge and Y stops at 22mm from the bottom edge, leaving (aprox) 50mm of X and 50mm of Y unprinted.
3. Get useful information on Bounds, which I'm fairly certain is what I need to control where my printing should start and finish.
I've hunted through this forum, MSDN, 'Help' (a misnomer if ever there was one) the VB Library and one or two other forums, which either baffle me with reams of code or suggest code to try which either just don't work or which doesn't declare all the variables and usually don't suggest what type of variable I need, it's all very frustrating

View 5 RepliesI have a Canon IP500 printer on a Silex net print server. I have several XP and Vista computers that print to it.Some print jobs require duplex printing, some require single page.There doesn't seem to be an easy way to do this built into Windows in any version that I have seen, other than opening the printer properties and changing the default before each print job, then going through the same steps to change it back, ---really awkward, and people goof it up all the time.I've been looking for code to do this, but all I find is VB6 or VBA samples that I can't get to work in vb.net 2008. One sample I got to compile OK, but it crashes--but it uses lots of API calls.I would think it would be trivial, but I find lots of people trying unsuccessfully to do the same thing.

View 1 RepliesCan anyone recommend a POS receipt printer that would integrate easily to a .NET WinForms application?Basically what I mean by integrate easily, is that the printer would actually show up as a standard windows printer, because the existing application uses Microsoft reporting services to print receipts, and I do not want to have to redo the entire receipt process via some SDK or API exposed by some proprietary receipt printer.Right now the client is printing on 8.5x11 sheets of paper from a standard printer, and it is just silly to use such big paper for receipts.We thought about getting half sized paper, since the current laser printer tray supports it, but found that non standard paper sizes run much more expensive than standard size paper, and it is not worth it.So I will tweak the report layout to fit a smaller size once I have a printer in place to use, so I am just looking for a recommendation if anyone has worked with any specific POS receipt printers.

I have a multi user app that works over a WAN and prints 2 types of documents:
1. Bus Tickets
2. Reports
Generally all users will have 2 printers connected to their PC (A Dot MAtrix printer for the continous paper tickets)and an inkjet or laser jet for reports.
How do I send certain print jobs i.e. Tickets automatically to the dot matrix printer and other print jobs automatically to the other printer?At the moment the dot matrix printer is set as the default printer on all machines, the reporting printer is then selected by the user whenever he/she wishes to print a report.This is not ideal however since most users run other apps on their machines and would prefer the plain paper printer to be set as the default.
I would like to obtain the device names from a database table or file on the user's machine so that the following occurs:
1. When A ticket is to be printed the printer object is automatically set to that of the dot matrix printer without offering an option.
2. When a report is to be printed the user is offered a dialog box(I know how to do this) WITH THE PRINTER NAME OF THE REPORT PRINTER APPEARING AS THE FIRST CHOICE.
1. How do I obtain a list of printers that are available on each computer?
2. How Do I set the printer object depending upon the job that is to be printed?

View 3 RepliesI'm helping the IT department at my school do an audit of all our printers (there are hundreds). They are all networked, so I wrote a vb.net program that sends PJL (printer job language) commands over port 9100 to all the printers to retrieve the page count. @PJL INFO PAGECOUNT actually gets the page count for all the printers, but for color printers we also need to know the color / mono page counts (number of color pages printed, number of black and white pages printed).... the number being returned by the PAGECOUNT command right now seems to be the total pagecount on color printers, so if I can find a command that will give me either the mono or color page count, I'll have the other number. I also need the serial number of every machine (the spreadsheet I'm working off of is unreliable). @PJL INQUIRE SERIALNUMBER actually returns the serial number for about half of the HP printers, and some random non-HP ones, but I can't figure out a way to get the serial number for the other 50%. I sent emails to some of the people who wrote the articles about PJL I was following, and they advised I try using printer spooler functions (from my brief google search it would appear these are windows API's that facilitate communication with a printer).
Does anyone have any experience with working with the Printer Spooler functions or know a PJL command I might have overlooked that will help me get any of the info I'm looking for?here is my program right now. Ignore GetSerialNumber2 and GetSerialNumber3... they don't work (well actually GetSerialNumber2 works on 5 printers... but yea). GetSerialNumber() is the one that gets the serial number successfully for about half of the printers. (edit: I took out those functions in the version I posted, along with some other stuff that wasn't needed for this, to fit the post size limit)
