notification settings requested by the user.</p>
</li><li><p><span><span>

over which the server MUST communicate the change notifications. This MUST be
done by calling RpcReplyOpenPrinter on the client specified by the name pointed
to by <i>pszLocalMachine</i>.</p>

provided using the additional parameters of RpcRouterReplyPrinterEx.</p>
