 Getting bin names from your printer


How do I retrieve the bin names of all bins for a particular printer using DeviceCapabilities?   

    Here's a very simple app to do this. Just start a brand new project in Delphi and drop down a TButton and a TMemo. Then double click the button and paste this code snippet over the corresponding code in the implementation of Unit.

    uses
      WinSpool;
    const
      PName = 'DELPHI III';
      PPort = '\\CONAN\DELPHI_III';
    procedure TForm .Button Click(Sender: TObject);
    var
      i : Integer;
      p : PChar;
    begin
      GetMem(p,24*DeviceCapabilities(PName,PPort,DC_BINNAMES,nil,nil));
      with Memo , Lines do begin
        Clear;
        for i:=  to DeviceCapabilities(PName,PPort,DC_BINNAMES,p,nil) do
          Add(p+24*(i- ));
      end;
      FreeMem(p);
    end;
