VB Definition:

Structure PRINTER_DEFAULTS
   Public pDatatype As IntPtr
   Public pDevMode As IntPtr
   Public DesiredAccess As Integer
End Structure

User-Defined Field Types:

If you don't have an enum ACCESS_MASK defined, use

public int DesiredAccess;

instead.

Notes:

If you use the class-version, you only need one OpenPrinter declaration, because you can pass NULL or an object references.
