reading the printer queue programmatically

[test-bugger]

How do I programmatically get the list of documents about to be printed or
still printing in my local printer?

I am writing a program that needs to know whether the document that I
printed (shell to another application) has been printed out already.

Thanks a lot!!!

This would depend on what programming language you are using. The API
calls you should look at ar "OpenPrinter", "EnumJobs" and
"ClosePrinter"

Hope this helps,
