The PRT_SETINFINITERETRY function sets infinite retry for a printer.
 
Parameter  Description
────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
 
pfRetry    Points to the variable that specifies whether to enable infinite
           retry. If the variable is FALSE, the function disables infinite
           retry. If the variable is TRUE, the function enables infinite
           retry.
 
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.
