<title>DESCRIPTION</title>
<para><function>DtPrintSetupBox</function> is a widget that is typically the
initial window used to set various options prior to printing from an application.
This widget is designed primarily for use by applications that utilize the
X Print Service. However, it can also be used by applications employing other
printing methods.</para>
<para><function>DtPrintSetupBox</function> is organized based on generic print
options and application specific print options. The sections are clearly
demarcated with separators to set off the generic section from the application
specific section(s). By utilizing the <Symbol>DtNworkAreaLocation</Symbol>
resource, the application developer can choose to utilize an area above the
generic section, below the generic section, or both above and below the generic
section.</para>
<para>The four default buttons (<literal>Print</literal>, <literal>Setup</literal>, <literal>Cancel</literal>, and <literal>Help</literal>) are considered generic buttons.
Applications can create additional pushbuttons as children of <function>DtPrintSetupBox</function>. These buttons will be laid out following the <literal>Print</literal>
button.</para>
<para>The <literal>Printer Name</literal> combo box contains the X printer
specifier of the printer to be used for the print job. The X printer specifier
is an identifier that uniquely identifies an X printer. The format of this
specifier is <emphasis>printerName</emphasis>@<emphasis>host</emphasis>: <emphasis>display</emphasis>.</para>
<refsect2>
<title>Descendants</title>
<para><function>DtPrintSetupBox</function> creates the descendants shown in
the following table. An application can use <Symbol>XtNameToWidget</Symbol>
to gain access to the named descendent. In addition, a user or an application
can use the descendant name when specifying resource values.</para>

</varlistentry>
<varlistentry><term><Symbol>DtNclosePrintDisplayCallback</Symbol></term>
<listitem>
<para>When the value of the <Symbol>DtNprintSetupMode</Symbol> resource
is <Symbol>DtPRINT_SETUP_XP</Symbol>, <function>DtPrintSetupBox</function>
will manage the X printing display connection and print context. As such, <Symbol>DtNclosePrintDisplayCallback</Symbol> is provided to allow an application

<para>A description of the printer as provided by the system administrator.
</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry><term><Symbol>DtNfileName</Symbol></term>
<listitem>
<para>Specifies the name of the destination file. Setting this resource will
update the value of the File Name text field.</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry><term><Symbol>DtNgetAttributesCallback</Symbol></term>
<listitem>
<para>Specifies the list of callbacks that is called whenever <function>DtPrintSetupBox</function> receives an <Symbol>XPAttributeNotify</Symbol> event, or immediately
after a new X printer connection is established. This callback list will only
be called if the value of the <Symbol>DtNprintSetupMode</Symbol> resource
is <Symbol>DtPRINT_SETUP_XP</Symbol>.</para>
<para>This callback is intended to be used by applications that utilize X
Print Service attributes directly. These applications will be interested in
changes made to the printing attributes by <function>DtPrintSetupBox</function>
or by other processes, such as the Print Dialog Manager (PDM).</para>
<para>One of two callback reason codes will be set for this callback. The
two reasons are of particular interest to applications that elect to present
information in their GUI based on X Print Service attributes. The following
indicates how such applications should respond to each code:</para>
<variablelist>
<varlistentry><term><Symbol>DtPRINT_CR_GET_STATIC_ATTRIBUTES</Symbol></term>
<listitem>
<para>The application should update only those controls that cannot be modified
by the user. This reason is set in response to encountering a new set of attributes
as the result of <function>DtPrintSetupBox</function>'s establishing a new
X printer connection. Additionally, subsequent immediate action to be taken
by <function>DtPrintSetupBox</function>'s will result in the <Symbol>DtNsetAttributesCallback</Symbol> list being called followed by either the <Symbol>DtNprintCallback</Symbol> list or the <Symbol>DtNsetupProc</Symbol>. If the application
were to update dynamic GUI controls within this <Symbol>DtNgetAttributesCallback</Symbol>, any input the user provided would be overridden by the printer
defaults in the resulting print job or setup dialog.</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry><term><Symbol>DtPRINT_CR_GET_ATTRIBUTES</Symbol></term>
<listitem>
<para>The application should update all static and dynamic controls. This
reason is set in response to <function>DtPrintSetupBox</function>'s receiving
an <Symbol>XpAttributeNotify</Symbol> event, or if a new X printer connection
was established as the result of the user activating the Printer Info button.

</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry><term><Symbol>DtPRINT_TO_PRINTER</Symbol></term>
<listitem>
<para>Direct print output to a printer. The destination printer is indicated
by the <Symbol>DtNprinterName</Symbol> resource. Setting this value will
cause the Print To File checkbox to be deselected, disable the File Name text
field, and disable the Select File button.</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
</variablelist>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry><term><Symbol>DtNprinterInfoProc</Symbol></term>
<listitem>
<para>This resource specifies the procedure that will be used to present printer
information in response to activation of the Printer Information button. The
printer selection dialog presented by the default <Symbol>DtNselectPrinterProc</Symbol> will also call this procedure in response to activation of its
Printer Information button.</para>
<para>If the value of the <Symbol>DtNprintSetupMode</Symbol> resource is <Symbol>DtPRINT_SETUP_XP</Symbol>, a default procedure that presents a printer information
dialog is used. For other values of <Symbol>DtNprintSetupMode</Symbol>,
the default value of <Symbol>DtNprinterInfoProc</Symbol> is NULL.</para>
<para>Typically, this procedure does not update <Symbol>DtPrintSetupBox</Symbol>
resources nor X Print Service attributes. The return value of this procedure
is ignored by <function>DtPrintSetupBox</function>. However, it is recommended
that the procedure follow the conventions presented in the "DtPrintSetupProc"
section to ensure future compatibility.</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry><term><Symbol>DtNprinterName</Symbol></term>
<listitem>
<para>The name of the printer to send the print job to.</para>
<para>If the value of the <Symbol>DtNprintSetupMode</Symbol> resource is <Symbol>DtPRINT_SETUP_XP</Symbol>, setting this resource will update the Printer
Name field based on the value of the <Symbol>XpPrinterNameMode</Symbol>
XRM resource. See the "EXTERNAL INFLUENCES" section in this man page for more
information. If the value of the <Symbol>DtNprintSetupMode</Symbol> resource
is <Symbol>DtPRINT_SETUP_PLAIN</Symbol>, setting this resource will update
the value of the Printer Name text field with the value of this resource.
</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry><term><Symbol>DtNprintSetupMode</Symbol></term>
<listitem>
<para>Instructs the widget as to whether or not it is being used in an application
that utilizes the X Print Service. If so, then the widget will manage the
X printing display connection and print context, and provide defaults for
a number of X printing operations, such as printer selection and information
dialogs, and printer verification. Refer to individual resource descriptions
to determine if and how they are affected by the value of this resource. Valid
values for this resource are:</para>
<variablelist>
<varlistentry><term><Symbol>DtPRINT_SETUP_PLAIN</Symbol></term>
<listitem>
<para>This widget will be used by an application that performs its own print
document format generation and print job submission.</para>

</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry><term><Symbol>DtNselectFileProc</Symbol></term>
<listitem>
<para>This resource specifies the procedure that will be used in response
to activation of the Select File button. The default value for this resource
is a pointer to a procedure which will invoke an <Symbol>XmFileSelectionBox</Symbol> dialog to select a file name.</para>
<para>If the user cancels the file selection dialog, no <function>DtPrintSetupBox</function> components will be updated. If the user selects a file name, the
file name will be set as the value for the <Symbol>DtNfileName</Symbol>
resource. This procedure communicates the newly selected file name to <function>DtPrintSetupBox</function> by setting the <Symbol>DtNfileName</Symbol> resource.
</para>
<para>Since the default procedure presents a File Selection Dialog, the resource
is actually set after the procedure returns, due to the asynchronous nature
of widgets and callbacks. The return value of this procedure is ignored by <function>DtPrintSetupBox</function>. However, it is recommended that the procedure
follow the conventions presented in the "DtPrintSetupProc" section to ensure
future compatibility.</para>
</listitem>

<varlistentry><term><Symbol>DtNselectPrinterProc</Symbol></term>
<listitem>
<para>This resource specifies the procedure that will be used in response
to activation of the Select Printer button. If the value of the <Symbol>DtNprintSetupMode</Symbol> resource is <Symbol>DtPRINT_SETUP_XP</Symbol>,
a default procedure that invokes a <Symbol>DtPrinterSelectionDialog</Symbol>
is used. If the user cancels the printer selection dialog no <function>DtPrintSetupBox</function> components will be updated. If the user selects a printer, the
printer will be set as the value for the <Symbol>DtNprinterName</Symbol>
resource.</para>
<para>This procedure communicates the newly selected printer name to <function>DtPrintSetupBox</function> by setting the <Symbol>DtNprinterName</Symbol>

<varlistentry><term><Symbol>DtNsetAttributesCallback</Symbol></term>
<listitem>
<para>Specifies the list of callbacks that is called whenever <function>DtPrintSetupBox</function> is about to perform an operation that will utilize X Print Service
attributes. This callback list will only be called if the value of the <Symbol>DtNprintSetupMode</Symbol> resource is <Symbol>DtPRINT_SETUP_XP</Symbol>.
</para>
<para>This callback is intended to be used by applications that utilize X
Print Service attributes directly. This callback provides these applications
with a chance to set attributes whenever a subsequent <function>DtPrintSetupBox</function> operation will utilize the current set of attributes (for example,
prior to calling the <Symbol>DtNprintCallback</Symbol> list).</para>
<para>The callback reason is <Symbol>DtPRINT_CR_SET_ATTRIBUTES</Symbol>.
</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry><term><Symbol>DtNsetupProc</Symbol></term>
<listitem>
<para>This resource specifies the procedure that will be used in response
to activation of the Setup button. If the value of the <Symbol>DtNprintSetupMode</Symbol> resource is <Symbol>DtPRINT_SETUP_XP</Symbol>, a default procedure
is provided that will call <Symbol>XpNotifyPDM</Symbol> in order to present
the setup dialog provided by the Print Dialog Manager.</para>
<para>If the value of the <Symbol>DtNprintSetupMode</Symbol> resource is
anything other than <Symbol>DtPRINT_SETUP_XP</Symbol>, the default value
of <Symbol>DtNsetupProc</Symbol> is NULL.</para>
<para>This procedure typically updates X Print Service attributes, and does
not set any <function>DtPrintSetupBox</function> resources.</para>
<para>The return value of this procedure is ignored by <function>DtPrintSetupBox</function>. However, it is recommended that the procedure follow the conventions
presented in the "DtPrintSetupProc" section to ensure future compatibility.

<para>This resource specifies the procedure that will be used to verify the
current value of the <Symbol>DtNprinterName</Symbol> resource before any
operation requiring a valid printer is performed. If the current value of
the <Symbol>DtNprinterName</Symbol> resource is NULL, this procedure will
set a default printer as the value of the <Symbol>DtNprinterName</Symbol>
resource.</para>
<para>If this procedure provides a default printer name, or a fully qualified
X printer name, it should communicate the new name to <function>DtPrintSetupBox</function> by setting the <Symbol>DtNprinterName</Symbol> resource before
returning.</para>
<para>If the value of the <Symbol>DtNprintSetupMode</Symbol> resource is <Symbol>DtPRINT_SETUP_XP</Symbol>, a default procedure will be set as the value of
the <Symbol>DtNverifyPrinterProc</Symbol> resource. This default procedure
will verify the X printer, and establish a print display connection and print
context for the printer. The procedure communicates the new print display
and context to <function>DtPrintSetupBox</function> by updating the <literal>print_data->print_display</literal> and <literal>print_data->print_context</literal> elements of the callback structure prior to returning.</para>
<para>If the value of the <Symbol>DtNprintSetupMode</Symbol> resource is
anything other than <Symbol>DtPRINT_SETUP_XP</Symbol>, the default value
of <Symbol>DtNverifyPrinterProc</Symbol> is NULL.</para>
<para>If the value of the <Symbol>DtNverifyPrinterProc</Symbol> resource
is NULL, the printer name is always considered valid.</para>
<para>If this procedure determines the printer name is valid or sets a valid
printer name (and X printer connection information), it should return <Symbol>DtPRINT_SUCCESS</Symbol>. If the printer name is invalid or no valid default
can be determined, this procedure should return <Symbol>DtPRINT_FAILURE</Symbol>.

<title>Callback And Procedure Resource Information</title>
<para><function>DtPrintSetupBox</function> defines a new structure, <structname role="typedef">DtPrintSetupData</structname>, that is passed to callbacks
and procedure resource values. For callbacks only, <function>DtPrintSetupBox</function> defines a new callback structure, <structname role="typedef">DtPrintSetupCallbackStruct</structname>. Not all fields in these structures
are valid for all callbacks and procedures. For callbacks, the application
must first look at the <symbol role="Variable">reason</symbol> field, and
use only the structure members that are valid for that particular reason.
For each procedure, the application should only reference structure members
that are defined as valid for that particular procedure. The <structname role="typedef">DtPrintSetupData</structname> and <structname role="typedef">DtPrintSetupCallbackStruct</structname> structures are defined as follows:</para>
