How can i develop a custom Printer driver in LabVIEW

I have one application in which when ever user prints a document (He will print only certain type of documents)
it should get printed using some standard printer but at the same time the data should get communicated to our own custom device which is connected to the PC using serial port.
how can i do this.
I think if we can develop a our own driver which will first send data to serial device and then just call the standard printers driver then whole problem can be resolved
The application will run on windows platform and the data i am expecting is purely a text data.

I think i have not explained my problem properly. i am sorry for that.
the problem is something like this.
my end user is already having one program which is generating the data (Unfortunately that program do not save data to any file and our requirement is online updatation of data) which i want to give to my serial device. he dont have the source code hence we can not alter that perticular code. the data might be available to us only when he prints the data, where we can select any one of installled printers.
hence we want to develop an application which will appear as printer driver to windows and when user prints we can capture printed data
i think problem will be clear now.

  • How can I replace my old print driver with my new printer driver on 13

    how can I replace my old print driver with my new print driver on photo elements 13

    The print driver is not installed in PSE.
    Check with the manufacturer of your printer.

  • How can I tell if the print driver was updated?

    I am sorry to ask such a basic question, but I cannot for the life of me figure it out. I'm in System Profiler>Printers and I can see me printer says the driver version is 3.0.1. Is this the right place to check drivers? I have downloaded an update to make it vs. 7.3.1, but it hasn't changed.
    I am trying to get my HP 2355 AOI to scan (like everyone else), and I can't figure out what to do after the download and install of 2350731EN-1.dmg. I download it, install it and yet the driver version doesn't change. I think I am missing a step.
    Thanks.

    I am sorry to ask such a basic question, but I cannot
    for the life of me figure it out. I'm in System
    Profiler>Printers and I can see me printer says the
    driver version is 3.0.1.
    This is the version number for HP's current drivers for most of their inkjets and multifunction devices.
    Is this the right place to
    check drivers? I have downloaded an update to make
    it vs. 7.3.1, but it hasn't changed.
    This is the version number for HP's multifunction device driver set. It includes the printer driver, the scanner driver, and assorted other stuff.
    I am trying to get my HP 2355 AOI to scan (like
    everyone else), and I can't figure out what to do

    I download it, install it and yet the driver version
    doesn't change. I think I am missing a step.
    You did everything right. HP's site is less than clear on the matter.
    You should be able to scan using the drivers in the 7.3.1 driver set, plus a graphics app such as Photoshop or Graphic Converter. There should be an app called (I think, I'm not at home where my HP MFD lives right now) HP Scan which will be called by the graphics app, or by HP Image Zone, and can be launched by itself if necessary.
    Some HP MFDs can also use VueScan. HP MFDs don't seem to like Apple's Image thingie.

  • How can I add a custom attribute to a catalog area? (CRM Isa Sales)

    Gents,
    How can I add a custom attribute to a catalog area? (CRM Isa Sales)
    Actually I would like to use the Catalog Area Type (maintained in trx COMM_PCAT_ADM on Catalog Area Header level). This field doesn't seem to be available in J2EE webshop. (The field documentation says it is for documentation purposes only so I don't expect it to be transferred).
    As this field is not readily available, I would like to add is as an attribute to the Catalog Area. BADI's PCAT_IMS_FEED_ATT and PCAT_IMS_FEED_VAL seem to indicate that it should be possible to add additional fields not only on product level, but also on Area level:
    Example implementation code:
    method IF_EX_PCAT_IMS_FEED_ATT~READ_NEW_FIELDS.
    * Example, how to add new attributes to a indexcategory
    * Possible levels are 'C'ategory and 'P'roduct.
    * Field 'VALUE' carries the attributetype ('S'tring, 'I'ntegar or
    * 'F'loat)
    * Structure 'IS_OBJECTS' carries actuall identifiers
      data: ls_fields        type comt_pcat_ims_feed_ux.
      case iv_level.
        when 'C'.                        "Category Level
    *     no new field
        when 'P'.                        "Product Level
          ls_fields-field = 'CUSTOMER_EXIT_FIELD'.
          ls_Fields-value = 'S'.
          append ls_fields to ct_fields.
    *     exproduct fields
          ls_fields-field = 'REMAN_ABL'.
          APPEND ls_fields TO ct_fields.
          ls_fields-field = 'EXCH_BUS'.
          APPEND ls_fields TO ct_fields.
      endcase.
    endmethod.
    However, when I create an implementation and add some code in the when 'C' part, the attributes do not seem to get transferred. (I've checked in the debug mode of the developer studio).
    - My example code:
    METHOD if_ex_pcat_ims_feed_att~read_new_fields.
    * Possible levels are 'C'ategory and 'P'roduct.
    * Field 'VALUE' contains the attributetype
    * ('S'tring, 'I'ntegar or * 'F'loat)
      DATA:
      ls_fields LIKE LINE OF ct_fields.
      CASE iv_level.
        WHEN 'C'.                        "Category Level
          ls_fields-value = 'S'.
          ls_fields-field = 'ZTEST'.
           APPEND ls_fields TO ct_fields.
        WHEN 'P'.                        "Product Level
      ENDCASE.
    ENDMETHOD.
    and:
    METHOD if_ex_pcat_ims_feed_val~read_new_fields.
      CASE iv_level.
        WHEN 'C'.
         ls_fields-field = 'ZTEST'.
         ls_Fields-value = 'Value 1'.
         append ls_fields to ct_fields.
        WHEN 'P'.
      ENDCASE.
    ENDMETHOD.
    In the ABAP debugger, I can see that my code is touched during initial and delta replications, however, after replication, the fields do not show up in the Java debugger.
    Any ideas?

    Hi,
    How can I customize the /bin/wcmcommand or how can I make use of [2] to create a custom WCMCommand?
    I think the "formUrl" is to post those input value to the jcr repository?
    var createDialog = {
            "jcr:primaryType": "cq:Dialog",
            "id": CQ.Util.createId("cq-createdialog"),
            "title":CQ.I18n.getMessage("Create Page"),
            "formUrl": CQ.shared.HTTP.externalize("/bin/wcmcommand"),
            "params": {
                "cmd":"createPage",
                "_charset_":"utf-8"
    I have added a field called "starred"
    Moreover, when I using the firebug to trace the post command, I can see that the starred value is posted also.
    :status
    browser
    _charset_
    utf-8
    cmd
    createPage
    label
    b
    parentPath
    /content/keyword_elaboration
    starred
    c
    template
    /libs/collab/commons/templates/form
    title
    a
    Source
    cmd=createPage&_charset_=utf-8&%3Astatus=browser&parentPath=%2Fcontent%2Fkeyword_elaboration&title=a&label=b&starred=c&template=%2Flibs%2Fcollab%2Fcommons%2Ftemplates%2Fform
    However, when I go to the crxde to view the node's attribute, the properity starred is not created
    Are there anything I did wrong or missing?
    Thanks.

  • How to set and save Custom Print Settings in Aperture?

    How to set and save Custom Print Settings in Aperture
    Hi,
    I am printing 12x18" images on 13x19" sheets. I find it difficult to enter the 13x19" dimensions because each value jumps to another random value when I move to enter the second dimension. For instance 13 jumps to, say, 8.5 as I type 19 into the second box. Same with the sheet dimensions.
    Also, when I finally get it all correctly, the margins don't set themselves automatically - which I would I expect.
    Then, even though I save the setting by clicking Save Setting at the gear below, next time I turn Aperture on, it's all gone.
    Any ideas? Thanks.
    Raphael

    For me, it is working with these settings, Raphael.
    Does your image have a 12x18" aspect ratio? You may want to crop it to the desired aspect ratio before printing.
    I can only test with Aperture 3.6 on Yosemite 10.1.

  • How can I completely wipe the hard drive with out the Mac OS X disc? I don't need any of the info on the computer.

    How can I completely wipe the hard drive with out the Mac OS X disc? I don't need any of the info on the computer.

    You can't unless you have a bootable system on an external drive you can use. Otherwise, you need either the original disc that came with your computer or a retail copy of Snow Leopard DVD. The latter contains 10.6.3, so your model must be capable of booting from that or an earlier version of OS X.
    You can purchase replacement discs from Apple:
    Apple Store Customer Service at 1-800-676-2775 or visit online Help for more information.
    To contact product and tech support: Apple - Support - Contact Apple Support.
    You can purchase Snow Leopard through the Apple Store: Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard - Apple Store (U.S.). The price is $19.99 plus tax. You will be sent physical media by mail after placing your order.
    After you install Snow Leopard you will have to download and install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 to update Snow Leopard to 10.6.8 and give you access to the App Store. Access to the App Store enables you to download Mountain Lion if your computer meets the requirements.

  • How can I use my external hard drive for my iphoto instead of my mac book pro memory?

    i don't know if this question has been asked before: how can I use my external hard drive for my iphoto instead of my mac book pro memory? just like itunes all my song are save on my external hard drive. make sense?

    Moving the iPhoto library is safe and simple - quit iPhoto and drag the iPhoto library intact as a single entity to the external drive - depress the option key and launch iPhoto using the "select library" option to point to the new location on the external drive - fully test it and then trash the old library on the internal drive (test one more time prior to emptying the trash)
    And be sure that the External drive is formatted Mac OS extended (journaled) (iPhoto does not work with drives with other formats) and that it is always available prior to launching iPhoto
    And backup soon and often - having your iPhoto library on an external drive is not a backup and if you are using Time Machine you need to check and be sure that TM is backing up your external drive

    Unfortunately, this is a problem that is driven by the DRM Dictatorship.  Despite the proliferation of mobile devices and the fact that there are many of us who do a lot of international travel, content providers don't want you to have access to their products outside of your homeland.  The Balkanized mentality of the DRM Dictatorship is way out of touch with the modern world.
    At least Apple, to its credit, allows you to use your accounts outside of your homeland as long as you have the proper credentials for them.  Most other services use the more Draconian geolocation filtering which does require you to be physically present in your homeland.  For the most part, you are not allowed to leave home if you want access to your favorite entertainment!

  • How can I share photos on iCloud Drive?

    I have a lot of photos shot with my DSLR camera.
    How can I put all my photos in the iCloud Drive and view the photos from all my devices? And how can my wife view all these photos from her devices - that is .. how can she see all my iCloud Drive photos on her devices?
    Thanks!
    Mojo

    I'm not sure understand you at this point.....
    Have you set up a "shared photo stream" to share your photos with your wife? [System Preferences -> iCloud .. then check the box next to  "Photos" and click on "Options" to the immediate right.... in the Options drop down make sure "iCloud Photo Sharing" is checked...
    Then open iPhoto - select in the sidebar the album you want to share (if you only want to share individual photos select these in the main window)
    Then click on the "Share" icon on the lower right of the iPhoto window - a little menu with icons will popup. Click on the iCloud icon in that menu... the next menu that pops up should be titled "Share"
    Click on the first item (New Photo Stream --the one with the "+" sign) and create a "shared album" - a drop down window will appear at the top of iPhoto... just fill out the form (whom you want to share it with, the name of the shared album, etc. - if you want your wife to be able to add photos to the shared album, check off the box that says "Subscribers can post"
    Your wife will have to agree to "subscribe" to this shared item (she will get "invite on her device - ) - once it is set up to see the shared photos in iPhoto click on "iCloud" in the sidebar under "Shared" and it will show you any shared albums in addition to your own Photo Stream...  on devices, to see the shared album, open the Photos app... at the bottom one of your choices will be "shared" (a cloud icon) - touch that icon and you will get a list of all your shared iCloud albums as well as "activity"...
    No need to "export" anything manual, etc.

    I cannot begin to express my level of frustration. I have been trying to use the composition widget light box display for some time now. I drag the widget to my document. The default widget has three small trigger boxes and a large area made up of a forward and backward button, a background, a text box and a frame for your image.
    My steps have been …
    I click on the little trigger box.
    I click on the frame that holds the main image.
    I go to the fill menu and browse my computer for my image and then click OK.
    IT shows up on my screen. Yay
    I attempt to continue using the next two trigger boxes provided in the widget.
    After that, I add more by clicking on the little plus sign.
    This is where all heck breaks loose.
    Every single time I attempt to add thumbnails, something messes up. When I go to preview, either not all of my main images show up, or it starts with the wrong one, or some are missing. I have looked and looked for help on this and the only thing I can find is how easy it is to create a great portfolio lightbox display.  But as we know, that only works when your thumbnails are the same image as the images in your lightbox. If you want something different, you have to use the composition wizard. I am finding it extremely difficult and confusing to customize.
    Is there an exact sequence you need to use to add images to the slideshow? I am my wits end.
