I need to write up a program which check the printer status in C language? Basically, before I print out the file, I have to check the printer is busy or free to print through network. Can anybody help me out how to write it in C please. Thanks
 
What OS are you using? If windows, which version and what OS is the print server running on?
 
thanks, I think it's vax/vms. But I am not sure about the version. I have to check it tomorrow. Thanks very much
 
The OS the printer server is running is windows NT 4.0
Thanks
