- still kernel mode printer driver supported on Longhorn?
- Posted by Masahiko Hayashi on November 4th, 2003
Hi,
I am a printer driver programmer.
Do you know if we will be able to still use kernel mode printer
driver on Longhorn?
Or Longhorn will support only user mode printer driver and
no longer support kernel mode printer driver?
Or if there is information regarding that, please let me know.
Thanks in advance.

To my knowledge Microsoft has officialy pointed many times
that it won't support problems with kernel mode printer
drivers in XP. So that answers your question about longhorn

No, you won't be able to use kernel mode printer drivers with Longhorn.
Hope this helps.
Thank you,
