I'll post some code shortly. In a nutshell, you need to use the SetJobA function of WinSpool.dll.

Facing the same problem....

i am facing a similar problem that you faced...

I want to monitor my printer activities. Whenever a new print job enters the spooler I want to automatically pause it, scan the file for confidentiality and then restart the print job if not confidential, else delete it from the list.

Please can you help me me with any ideas or codes...

Has anyone had any experience using the FindFirstPrinterChangeNotification method found within winspool.drv.

The c# examples I've found on the net are pretty useless, and I can't be arsed to spend the time to convert the VB.NET examples, as I'm feeling pretty lazy.

Specifically, I want to call FindFirstPrinterChangeNotification for a callback whenever a new print job enters the spooler so that I can automatically pause it, rename the printer port to a unique filename and then restart the print job.

Ideas and source code welcome
