How to communicate from Printer Driver on Client Host to own Printer Monitor on Print

[CoRohr]

I have developed a printer driver on postscript base. This printer uses a own port monitor. In this monitor i configure some values. This values are stored in registry than by windows. If i share my printer from my print server the client is able to connect to the Printer. The Printer driver is installed on client system well and i can use the printer. But i need the values form the port. The port does not is installed on the client. So how to get the information from the port?

My port implementation has a Monitor2 struct initalisation with a wonderfull GetPrinterDataFromPort Function. But how to call this function from driver?

In the driver i have no PortHandle. I need it in DocumentsEvents when iEsc == DOCUMENTEVENT_STARTDOCPOST.

Thanks for all ideas to solve my problem.

Well you could always map some user mode memory and feed the info back and fourth there.

Can't tell you the API calls anymore. Look the up at OSR website.
