This reflects the type of the driver itself, not the OS you are running it on. So if you had a NT4-style kernel mode printer driver, it would be a "v2" driver. These drivers are installed in the w32x86\2 directory as opposed to the '3' folder. Hence, DDI_DRIVER_VERSION_NT4 is returned in this case. So in your case, I would guess that your driver is an NT4-style driver.
