For more information on options and possible values, refer to the description of the WR SET PRINT OPTION command. Note the following specific features of the WR GET PRINT OPTION command:
• option = 1 (wr paper option): Returns the name of the current paper in value1 if value2 and value3 are omitted. If only value3 is omitted, the command returns respectively the height and width of the paper in value1 and value2. Use the PRINT OPTION VALUES command to get the name, height and width of all the paper formats offered by the printer.
• option = 2 (wr orientation option): Returns 1 (Portrait) or 2 (Landscape). If a different orientation option is used, value1 is set to 0 (value2 and value3 must be omitted).
• option = 5 (wr paper source option): In value1, returns the index, in the array of trays returned by the PRINT OPTION VALUES command, of the paper tray used (value2 and value3 must be omitted).
Note: This option can only be used under Windows.
• option = 6 and option = 7 (wr pages from option and wr pages to option): If all the pages are printed, the command returns 1 in value1 for wr pages from option and -1 in value1 for wr pages to option(value2 and value3 must be omitted).
• option = 8 (wr color option): Returns a code in value1 specifying the mode for handling color: 1=Black and white (monochrome), 2=Color (value2 and value3 must be omitted).
Note: This option can only be used under Windows.
• option = 9 (wr destination option): If the current value is not in the predefined list, value1 contains -1 and the system variable OK is set to 1. If an error occurs, value1 and the system variable OK are set to 0. If value1 contains a predefined value different from 1, value3 contains the access path of the printed file. value2 always contains 0.
• option = 11 (wr double sided option): Returns 0 (Standard or Single-sided, default value) or 1 (Double-sided) in value1.
If value1 equals 1, value2 may return one of the following values: 0=Left binding (default), 1=Top binding (value3 must be omitted).
Note: This option can only be used under Windows.
• option = 12 (wr spooler document name option): Returns the name of the current print document in value3, if it has been defined previously (value1 and value2 receive 0). Otherwise, an empty string is returned.
