View a History of Printed Items for any connected printer - Possible in Windows 10 or prior?

[kjv1611]

This is more of a random thought than anything. Basically, sometimes when you print something, it prints before you can check. Our "new" printer is so much quieter than our previous HP that lasted some 10+ years, I think, that I can't always just listen to see if something printed. Sure, you should get an error if it doesn't print, but what if Windows thinks it printed, but the printer didn't actually print - yes, that can happen.

So my thought is: is there any way to pull up a log file or anything that shows everything sent to the printer?

My current home printer is an Epson Workforce 3540 in case that helps any. Great all-in-one by the way. And using it over wifi.
