Controls the behavior of the printer driver

files in the MS_PLTCFG_PATH search path are listed. Only .pltcfg files with
Visible=0 properties are excluded. The display label property is used to
identify .pltcfg files, if defined. Otherwise the file name is used. Legacy
.plt files are always identified by file name.
This variable may be used to control the .pltcfg
visibility test. For example, a value of '2-4,6' will result in only .pltcfg
files with Visible property values of 2,3,4, and 6 to be included in the list.
All .plt files are considered to have a Visible property of 1, as are .pltcfg
files that do not explicitly define a Visible property.
There are two reserved values:
- "0": Do not search for printer driver configuration files.
Selection can only be performed using a file picker dialog. All files are
identified by file name only.
- "-1": Search for printer driver configuration files, but do not
read their Display Label or Visible properties. All files are identified by
file name only. This setting may be helpful if the time required to build the
list is a concern.
