Monitoring Print Queue Using System.Printing
Oct 20, 2009
I am developing an application about a print queue monitoring. I found this code:
Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
localPrintServer2 = New LocalPrintServer()
defaultPrintQueue2 = LocalPrintServer.GetDefaultPrintQueue()
ht1 = New Hashtable
ht2 = New Hashtable
Timer1.Enabled = True
Timer1.Interval = 50
[Code] .....
I have sent print but it never goes inside the loop. There is nothing shows in the Textbox as well. For Each job As PrintSystemJobInfo In jobs. Is there any way to find out which system it is coming from because I have to build a system with the number of prints each user in the system prints and to which printer.

The below code (VB 2008) will check the print queue every milisecond for a job. It will then show the pagecount in a text box. It works great when im printing to a local printer, but As soon as I change my pc default printer to a network printer, I cant capture any data.

I am using VB 2008 & Access Databases for creating WinForm Applications. Also i am using Crystal Reports for Report solution. my question is How do i created reports such a way that they can be printed in faster Ascii Format on any DotMatrix printer. The default true type fonts make printing very slower.
I tried to use "Draft 10 cpi" font which come to available me after i installed a correct driver for my Epson printer. which also helped me overcome this problem. however it wont be the scenario with all my clients i.e. they might have different printers having different Make with different drivers installed. i have tried to open such project on there PC but the printing wont come in Draft instead the fonts get expanded too much & the print wont come right.

I'm developing an application to monitor print queue and pause it to check some conditions, then resume or cancel print job. I can get total pages for printing document but can't get number of copies, how can i get this parameter.
Ex. If someone print 5 pages document for 2 copies, the total pages i got is 5 not 10 pages. (how can i get the real total pages)

I have coded up a service, and I would like it to monitor when a user logon to the system fails. Is there an event I can handle for this? Or, a message that is broadcast? Or, is it possible to get the failed logon counter for the local system?

This is the first time I have used this messaging library and used some example code to implement it. The first time I ran it it worked perfectly but I abruptly stopped the code since my parsing method seemed wrong. So when I restarted it, the code freezes at the following line:

I need to create a notification system for my application that will alert the user once new items have been sent to their queue, which is made of up database entries. The latter part of this question may need to be asked in the database forum, but I guess we'll figure that out First, since I haven't created anything like this before, I need some direction on what the best possible solution would be.The notification system should always be running and work independently of the main app. With this requirement, I thought a Windows Service would be best.
The notification itself will just be a quick form that alerts the user. I'm sure most of that will be fairly easy to create. The only issue I'm wondering about is how to constantly check the database and determine a new record has been inserted.Would a windows service have a timer or something that allows me to constantly check?If it does, how would I determine a new record has been inserted?

I am using this code to print a screen shot with the Adobe PDF printer driver.
It is all working fine except it also captures the printing dialog in the screen shot
There is a hide button on the dialog but it prints before i have the opportunity to select "Hide"
I also cannot find a property to use the hide option.[code]..

I have a small program written in VB10 that allows me to enter checks and then print a deposit slip. The maximum number of checks per printed page is 32 so if I enter more than 32 two pages will print. I send the output to print preview and then,
if everything looks OK, I will print from there. If there are two pages to print all the pages show up in print preview. However when I print, only the last page prints. I am printing two copies so I have one for the deposit and one for my records. One page prints fine: I get two copies of the page. If I have two pages to print then I get two copies of page two.

Basically I currently have the following code which enables me to print the form perfectly.
CODE:
However, with the coding above on the print preview the form screen shoot/dump isn't centred. So I was wondering what would be the way to go about doing it? This is using the printform in the power packs available btw.
Also I figured it might be using height/width/location/margins etc, but I'm not to sure how one goes about assingning values to them. Like the two above I commented don't work.

I want to print bill on a roll paper using vb.net. The requirements are as follows: The width of the page is 300 pixels or 3 inches. The height of the page is variable, depending on the number of the rows in the datagrid. The page header will have an image. The names of the items could be long, so they should not be chopped, rather print on the next line.
How should I go about it?

I am migrating over to VB2008 and I get it except for printing. I can print but I have lost a lot of the methods to print dynamically and I need to know the secret not to pull my hair out doing this. These are the circumstances I need to fill:1. Multiple Document Interface (Parent Document) holding multiple forms.2. Each will print from their own form page but this is the scenario I am trying to accomplish which I did rather well in VB6:Dynamic page length. As it runs through the data and deciding what needs to be printed. All print statements are mapped. currenty =y currentx = x.
a. Calls private sub HEADER to print header (eg store name address) resets currenty= 0
b. Calls private sub BODY based on selections answered. Not answered then omitted.if currenty > 9 inches and you are not done then call private sub TRAIL then HEADER and continue in the BODY recheck for currenty >9 inches and not done printing
c. Calls TRAIL to finish off.
Now I have been able to do all this using the Imports Microsoft.VisualBasic.PowerPacks.Printing.Compatibility.VB6 statement but that is using the old methods and may or may not be usable in 64 bit mode processing.When I use the printdocument.print() method , everything must be handled inside of the printdocument events. Going out of the routine to call another section causes the document to end and start a new page. Since gosub routines are not allowed, it is almost impossible to jump around to make this run properly. Am I missing something???? Can I form the document in different subroutines and pass a completed page to the printer with graphics??
I can do this by constructing the document in a picture box sending all the print commands go to an image the old VB had a more stable image container that did not disappear if minimized or another window openened over it by auto-redraw. I thought about saving it as a .jpg and them printing but that is still just crazy. There has to be a simple way of constructing multiple pages that I am just missing.

Hi, i have a form with size 850,900. When i print this, on the print preview the right hand side of the page is cut off. Is there a way to stretch the form so that the whole form is printed? Currently the form contains 4 datagrids, i don't know if this makes a difference, becuase if i resized these i wouldn't be able to see all of the text.
Also, on the print preview page, is there a way of displaying the print dialog box when pressing the print button, so that the local network printers can be selected?

I generate a print preview, the only thing is, if there is enough data to fill like 2-3 pages I don't know how to generate a new page. It only fills the first page and that's it....
Private Doc As New PrintDocument()
Private Sub btnPrint_Click(sender As System.Object, e As System.EventArgs) Handles btnPrint.Click[code].....
most of the code it's just pulling data from database and printing necessary charges to the invoice, but if the invoice is more than 1 page then I don't know what to do because it only generates 1 page.
