    Getting the margins of a spooled print job

    I am making a control which monitors the print queue and allows you to get information on the jobs as they are added (see http://www.merrioncomputing.com/Down...QueueWatch.htm ) but there doesn't seem to be any way of finding out what the margins settings for the print job are - any ideas?

    Once a print job enters the spooler, some information is visible in the queue viewer about the job like orientation, paper size and printer settings, but I don't know how you would get it nor even if it's possible to extract margin information. You might want to contact HP support (or the vendor of your choice) to see if that info is available to the OS, that's a pretty specific question. Good luck!
