USHORT DosDevIOCtl(pfRetry, pbCommand, 0x0064, 0x0005, hDevice)
PBYTE pfRetry;      /* pointer to variable for retry flag */

The PRT_GETINFINITERETRY function retrieves an infinite retry setting for a
printer.
 
Parameter  Description
────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
 
pfRetry    Points to the variable that receives the infinite retry setting.
           The variable is FALSE if infinite retry is disabled or TRUE if
           retry is enabled.
 
pbCommand  Points to the variable that contains a reserved value. The value
           must be zero.
 
hDevice    Identifies the printer that receives the device-control function.
           The handle must have been created previously by using the
           DosOpen function.
 
Return Value
 
The return value is zero if the function is successful or an error value if
an error occurs.
