Since you are looking for creating a printer's driver you can check Windows Driver Development toolkit. It provides tools that can help you to develop build package and deploy your driver models. You can find more details here: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/hardware/ff557573(v=vs.85).aspx https://github.com/Microsoft/Windows-driver-samples But keep in mind that you will need to wrap many Windows APIs to accomplish this in .NET. Alternatively you could try high-level virtual printers features from LEADTOOLS that provides ready .NET classes to create your own virtual printer which should behave similar to any printer’s driver.
