Understanding Microsoft's PostScript print driver "PSINJECT"

Warning: this is only interesting if you write Windows printer drivers

One of my frequent projects is Windows print-driver development, and I'm getting rapidly up to speed on customizing the OEM PostScript driver. The Microsoft documentation on this is complete, in the sense that it provides mostly technically correct information, but there is very little big-picture on how it all fits together, or how one might use it to build an extension plugin.

After doing substantial researching on this, I managed to collect enough information to warrant putting into a Tech Tip. I've decoded the various injection points and shown them in the context of a full print job. I've not found anything even close to this anywhere on the internet.

Corrections welcome.
