hi, im using EnumPrinters to detect local printers on win2k. however this returns all printer devices found on the system, incl. for example also "Microsoft Office Document Image Writer" or "Adobe PDF Writer". How do programatically found out which of the detected handles is for a 'real' hardware printer?

thanx
