Parameters

basePrintTicket
PrintTicket

The first print ticket.

deltaPrintTicket
PrintTicket

The second print ticket. This can be null.

Returns

A ValidationResult that includes the merged PrintTicket and an indication of whether any of its settings had to be changed to guarantee viability.

Examples

The following example shows how to use this method to merge two print tickets and respond to the ValidationResult that is returned.

    // duplexing printing is supported by the printer.
    //

    //
    // The printer's duplexing capability is returned as a read-only collection of duplexing options
    // that can be supported by the printer. If the collection returned contains the duplexing
    // option we want to set, it means the duplexing option we want to set is supported by the printer,
    // so we can make the user-default PrintTicket setting change.
    //
    if (printcap.DuplexingCapability.Contains(Duplexing.TwoSidedLongEdge))

        // and validate the merged PrintTicket to get the new PrintTicket we want to set as the

Remarks

The method produces a viable print ticket; that is, a ticket that does not request printing features that the printer does not support. The method first validates the two input print tickets against the Print Schema. If either is invalid, an exception is thrown.

The two tickets are then merged. If they have different values for a particular property then the resulting merged ticket initially uses the value of the delta ticket.

The merged ticket is then checked against the actual capabilities of the printer. If any settings in the ticket are incompatible with the printer's capabilities, then the printer driver changes those settings by using whatever logic it wants. Typically, it substitutes the user's or printer's default value for the setting. It the driver's source of substitute values is not the same ticket as basePrintTicket, then the merged ticket might have some settings that are different from both of the input tickets. If the printer driver has to change any settings then this fact is reported in the ConflictStatus property of the ValidationResult.

To merge and validate based on a print queue's default settings, you should set basePrintTicket to the DefaultPrintTicket or the UserPrintTicket.

The deltaPrintTicket parameter can be null, in which case the basePrintTicket is validated, checked for viability, and returned, possibly with changes.

With this overload of MergeAndValidatePrintTicket, both the deltaPrintTicket and the PrintTicket in the ValidationResult that is returned have job wide scope. To specify a different scope use the other overload of this method.

Applies to

MergeAndValidatePrintTicket(PrintTicket, PrintTicket, PrintTicketScope)

Merges two PrintTickets and guarantees that the resulting PrintTicket is valid, does not ask for any printing functionality that the printer does not support, and is limited to the specified scope.

Public Function MergeAndValidatePrintTicket (basePrintTicket As PrintTicket, deltaPrintTicket As PrintTicket, scope As PrintTicketScope) As ValidationResult

Parameters

basePrintTicket
PrintTicket

The first print ticket.

deltaPrintTicket
PrintTicket

The second print ticket. This can be null.

scope
PrintTicketScope

A value indicating whether the scope of deltaPrintTicket, and the scope of the print ticket returned in the ValidationResult, is a page, a document, or the whole job.

Returns

A ValidationResult that includes the merged PrintTicket and an indication of whether any of its settings had to be changed to guarantee viability.

Exceptions

At least one of the input print tickets is not valid.

The basePrintTicket is null.

The scope parameter does not have a valid PrintTicketScope value.

The validation, merger, and viability checking operation failed.

The deltaPrintTicket parameter can be null, in which case the basePrintTicket is validated, checked for viability, and returned, possibly with changes.

If the scope is a job, then the print ticket returned in the ValidationResult can include Print Schema parameters with Job, Document, and Page prefixes. If the scope is a document, then per-job settings in deltaPrintTicket are ignored, and the returned ticket can include parameters with Document and Page prefixes. If the scope is a page, then the per-job settings and the per-document settings in deltaPrintTicket are ignored, and the returned ticket can include parameters with only the Page prefix.
