XPRINT GET DUPLEX statement

Purpose | Retrieve the XPRINT duplex status.
Syntax | XPRINT GET DUPLEX TO DuplexVar& Function Form: DuplexVar& = XPRINT(DUPLEX)

Remarks

XPRINT allows you to get/set the duplex status, if the printer supports printing on both sides of a page. XPRINT GET DUPLEX retrieves the duplex status, assigning the value to the long integer variable specified by DuplexVar&. The following equates are predefined in the compiler to symbolically represent the possible duplex status:

%DMDUP_SIMPLEX = 1 (single sided printing)

%DMDUP_VERTICAL = 2 (page flipped on the vertical edge)

%DMDUP_HORIZONTAL = 3 (page flipped on the horizontal edge)

If the printer does not support duplex printing, the value zero (0) is returned. If this statement is executed without a host printer attached, error 57 is generated.
