## Declaration

```occ
OSStatus PMSessionGeneral (
   PMPrintSession printSession,
   Ptr pData
);
```

## Parameters

- `printSession`: The printing session whose data you want to obtain.
- `pData`: A pointer to a `PrGeneral` data structure.

## Return Value

A result code. See [Result Codes](../core_printing.md).

## Overview

The function `PMSessionGeneral` is valid for the printing session passed to the function. In macOS, the function `PMSessionGeneral` makes an attempt to get the requested data if the opcode is `getPSInfoOp`. Otherwise the result code `kPMNotImplemented` is returned.
