I have developed a Printer Driver Version 3, now I want to change to Printer Driver Version 4. Can you suggest me how to change from Printer Driver Version 3 to version 4?

What I have tried:

I have read the Printer Driver Version 4 document(V4 Printer Driver | Microsoft Docs[^]), The document write: V4 print drivers rely heavily on data files and JavaScript for extensibility.

The Printer Extension(EXE), Windows Store device app(APPX), DevModeMap(XML), Constraint script(JavaScript), Driver Events(XML), BidiExtension(JavaScript) represent on V4 Printer Driver to plug in.

I do not understand what I have to do to change from Printer Driver Version 3 to version 4.

You must completly read the documentation and implement it in that manner. Read the how to Build a v4 Printer Driver in Visual Studio to find a basic sample.
