Hi,
I have a problem redirecting print jobs from one printer to another.
To be more clear,
Lets say I have one application that will send files to be printed to the
pointed printer. After executing this application, it has queued say 1500
printjobs into the one pointed printer. By looking at the printer speed
this will consumes lots of time to finish this printqueue. So I need to
provide a facility which redirects the jobs to a different printer based on
load. That means .spl and .shd files are already created and printmanager
has to move this to the new printer.
I am stuck and bit confused that how to accomplish this?
Thanks and Regards,
Anantha

I wanted to know if it is possible to capture a print job via a port monitor, edit the print job and then send it across to another printer?

Do you have a version of this sample port monitor that would work on windows 98. The monitor that we created seems to run into a problem in 98 wherein after installation it works fine for the first time. But after reboot, somehow Windows assumes that is a "System Port" and does not allow me to do any operation on it.

hi all,
i don't know whether i'm missusing the site? but i'm in a big problem. i.e.
i designed a baby printer like md910(citizen) but it can desplay graphics too(but not with instructions) , means if i say print , from any msword or paint brush it must print for me. so, i need to write a driver for that. but i have very less knowledge about drivers. i read ntddk also, but i feel that the documentation is too difficult. i'm getting confusion like what to write?how to write? where to start?
the words print processor, print monitor, and print providor are loking too confusing.
please help me what to do.
thanks in advance

This way is not the best, because I don't have the process under the control and this "pint" needs to be created associations between the parent applicaton and the file in the registry. If you can, advise me. Thank you for any motivies.

Hallo,
can you advise me? I'd like to write simple application, which will "print to file" directly. Is possible to do this with your function in dll. How can I run the "print to file"? I've created the "directory port", which is set to default and I run the print
with:
SW_HIDE);

Hi All,
I am looking at the entire print flow architecture and I seem to be missing one thing.
How does the print spooler know the directory structure of the data file?
that is, when the application selects "print" from the menu, where does the entire path of the file being printed get stored? or does it
get stored at all?
there should be some place which contains not only the filename, but also the directory where th file resides. else, how will the print spooler know where to get the data from?
I need this information for a printer accounting software that i am developing.
thanks in advance.
