Syntax

HRESULT GetReadStream(
  [in]          BSTR                     bstrName,
  [out, retval] IPrinterScriptableStream **ppStream
);

Parameters

[in] bstrName

The property to read.

[out, retval] ppStream

The returned stream.

Return value

This method returns an HRESULT value.

Remarks

GetReadStream does not work with non-stream properties.

A call to GetReadStream will throw an exception, if the specified property is not found. We recommend that you use a try-catch statement around calls to this method, to allow your app to handle any failures gracefully.
