My cocoa-application has to print different types of pdf-files, each type
needing a special printer configuration. Unfortunally I have to set primary and
secondary paper feed, which seems to be impossible without using a printer
dialog.
But since the needed configuration should be selected automatically through the
type of the pdf, this is no option. The only freedom I will grant the user is
to choose a printer and the paper trays for the first and other pages, right
after installing the application.
I would write this down to the users custom printer preferences, using a
special configuration for every process.
I believed the NSPrinter-object would tell me, wich options the printer allows
for the paper feed. But since it does not provide this information, I'll have
to find another way to get this information.
Anybody knows how?
