Couldn't be a kind of recipe to user detect in which situation the user is?

For example, there is a recipe in printing package to user
determine if a PostScript printer has duplex feature:

;; NOTE 3: The duplex feature will only work on PostScript printers that
;;         support this feature.
;;         You can check if your PostScript printer supports duplex feature
;;         by checking the printer manual.  Or you can try these steps:
;;         1. Open a buffer (or use the *scratch* buffer).
;;         2. Type:
;;            First line (on first page)
;;            ^L
;;            Second line (on second page)
;;         3. Print this buffer with duplex turned on.
;;         If it's printed 2 (two) sheets of paper, then your PostScript
;;         printer doesn't have duplex feature; otherwise, it's ok, your
;;         printer does have duplex feature.

Humm, a colleague of mine had to write a code to detect the default 
printer in
Windows, he said me that this is not easy, it depends on at least the OS 
version.

He just wrote a code for a specific Windows version.
