I thought the whole point of the Windows GDI was that the programmer 
didn't have to know what the backend printer and its driver was.  The 
programmer makes the print output write to the GDI and the printer 
manufacturer's driver honours the calls made by the GDI.  Why does this 
sound too simple?
