I am trying to print a document from one of our Applications which is located on a servers. The application is based on C# .Net Framework 4.7.2. To perform the printing, I want to use the PrintTicket, because we need to edit some settings.
My problem concerns the Secure Printing (Locked Printing). I don't know exactly how to configure this. (https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-hardware/drivers/print/sample-printticket-file-for-pin-printing)
I have managed to edit the XML configuration so that a PIN can be set. However, nothing happens in the transmission to the printer afterwards.
My approach so far:
private (string printerName, PrintTicket printTicket) GetPrintOptions(string printerName, int tray)
{
// Get the dictionary of print queues that the print server hosts.
var printQueues = WpfPrinterUtilities.GetPrintQueues(new[] { EnumeratedPrintQueueTypes.Local, EnumeratedPrintQueueTypes.Connections });
// Select the print queue.
var printQueue = printQueues.First(p => p.Value.FullName.Contains(printerName)).Value;
// Retrieve the dictionary of input bins from the print queue configuration.
var inputBins = WpfPrinterUtilities.GetInputBins(printQueue);
// Get the default print ticket associated with the print queue.
var printTicket = printQueue.DefaultPrintTicket;
if (inputBins.Any())
{
string trayname = string.Empty;
if (inputBins.ContainsKey($"Tray {tray}"))
{
trayname = $"Tray {tray}";
}
else
{
trayname = $"Fach {tray}";
}
// Modify a print ticket input bin value.
printTicket = WpfPrinterUtilities.ModifyPrintTicket(printTicket, "psk:JobInputBin", inputBins[trayname]);
//printTicket = WpfPrinterUtilities.ModifyPrintTicket(printTicket, "psk11:JobPasscode", "psk:On");
//printTicket = WpfPrinterUtilities.ModifyPrintTicket(printTicket, "psk11:JobPasscodeString", "123456");
}
return (printQueue.FullName, printTicket);
}
public static PrintTicket ModifyPrintTicket(PrintTicket ticket, string featureName, string newValue)
{
if (ticket == null)
throw new ArgumentNullException("ticket");
// Read Xml of the PrintTicket xml.
XmlDocument xmlDoc = new XmlDocument();
xmlDoc.Load(ticket.GetXmlStream());
// Create NamespaceManager and add PrintSchemaFrameWork-Namespace hinzufugen (should be on DocumentElement of the PrintTicket).
// Prefix: psf NameSpace: xmlDoc.DocumentElement.NamespaceURI = "http://schemas.microsoft.com/windows/2003/08/printing/printschemaframework"
XmlNamespaceManager manager = new XmlNamespaceManager(xmlDoc.NameTable);
manager.AddNamespace(xmlDoc.DocumentElement.Prefix, xmlDoc.DocumentElement.NamespaceURI);
manager.AddNamespace("xsi", "https://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance");
manager.AddNamespace("xsd", "https://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema");
manager.AddNamespace("psk", "https://schemas.microsoft.com/windows/2003/08/printing/printschemakeywords");
manager.AddNamespace("pskv11", "https://schemas.microsoft.com/windows/2013/05/printing/printschemakeywordsv11");
// Search node with desired feature we're looking for and set newValue for it
string xpath = string.Format("//psf:Feature[@name='{0}']/psf:Option", featureName);
XmlNode node = xmlDoc.SelectSingleNode(xpath, manager);
if (node != null)
{
if (node.Attributes["name"].Value != newValue)
node.Attributes["name"].Value = newValue;
}
XmlNode root = xmlDoc.DocumentElement;
CreatePasscodeStringNode().ForEach(n => root.AppendChild(root.OwnerDocument.ImportNode(n, true)));
// Create a new PrintTicket out of the XML.
PrintTicket modifiedPrintTicket = null;
using (MemoryStream stream = new MemoryStream())
{
xmlDoc.Save(stream);
stream.Position = 0;
modifiedPrintTicket = new PrintTicket(stream);
}
return modifiedPrintTicket;
}
private static List<XmlNode> CreatePasscodeStringNode()
{
XmlDocument xmlDoc = new XmlDocument();
var xml = @"<Root xmlns:psf=""https://schemas.microsoft.com/windows/2003/08/printing/printschemaframework"" " +
@"xmlns:xsi=""https://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"" " +
@"xmlns:xsd=""https://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"" version=""1"" " +

@"xmlns:pskv11=""https://schemas.microsoft.com/windows/2013/05/printing/printschemakeywordsv11""> " +
@"<psf:ParameterInit name=""pskv11:JobPasscodeString""><psf:Value xsi:type=""xsd:string"">123456</psf:Value></psf:ParameterInit><psf:Feature name=""pskv11:JobPasscode""><psf:Option name=""psk:On"" /></psf:Feature></Root>";
xmlDoc.Load(GenerateStreamFromString(xml));
//XmlNode root = xmlDoc.DocumentElement;
//XmlElement n = xmlDoc.CreateElement("ParameterInit");
//n.Prefix = "psf";
//n.SetAttribute("name", "pskv11:JobPasscodeString");
//XmlElement n2 = xmlDoc.CreateElement("Value");
//n2.Prefix = "psf";
//n2.SetAttribute("xsi:type", "xsd:string");
//n2.InnerText = "123456";
//n.AppendChild(n2);
var result = new List<XmlNode>();
foreach (XmlNode node in xmlDoc.DocumentElement.ChildNodes)
result.Add(node);
return result;
}
What am I missing? The XML is formated correctly (see below) and can be transmited to the printer, but nothing happens.
