The Handle property holds the handle to the printer device context.

A device context is a link between a Windows-based application, a device driver, and an output device such as a display or printer. The printer device context can be retrieved by successfully executing the PrintCreateDC or PrintDialog methods. The retrieved printer device context can be freed by executing the PrintDeleteDC method (The Handle property value will be 0 or NULL).
