Currently i have made label printer as default one, but i may have
to change this later and then there will be a need to make a virtual
printer. I would request to guide me in preparing this label printer
as virtual printer also.
Are you *sure* you want a virtual printer? Virtual printers are effectively specially written drivers which "pretend to be" a real printer but instead of sending their output to a real printer they direct it to a specific format of file on your computer. (This is not to be confused with the selecting "print to file" in the normal way when using a specific printer, which is something completely different). Virtual printers usually create files in a very specific format, typically Adove pdf files or perhaps even bitmap or tiff or jpeg files. Is that what you really want? I suspect it isn't, and that you are really just asking how you can programatically select a specific printer for your output even if it isn't the default system printer, which is of course a completely different thing. So, before I respons I would appreciate it if you would tell me *exactly* what you want to do in this respect. As much detail as possible please.
By the way, I'll be at hospital all day today so it will be later tonight or maybe tomorrow before I respond again, but there are other people here who will probably post replies for you as well so keep watching the thread.
