Specifies a pointer to the Display structure; returned from
XOpenDisplay.
DESCRIPTION
XpRehashPrinterList causes the X Print Server to recompute (update)
its list of available printers, and update the attributes for the
printers. The intended usage of this routine is in a special tool that
a system administrator can run after changing the printer topology.
General applications are encouraged to use this call sparingly if at
all, and let the system administrator control printer topology
updates.
Depending on the print facilities underlying the X Print Server, the X
Print Server may be able to detect changes in the printer topology and
dynamically update to reflect the changes, or may not be able to
detect the changes and will have to be notified via XpRehashPrint-
erList. Existing print contexts will not be affected by XpRehash-
PrinterList as long as their printer destination remains valid.
