    Printer Monitoring

    Hey,

    I am writing a vb6 app which cycles through a list of the printers I have hooked up to the network. What I want is to be able for the application to check...
    ->Ink/Toner Levels
    ->Paper Status
    ->Printer Status

    I already can get the printers queue, but the above tasks still hide from me.

    Any idea's

    (1) Depends on the printer - not all printers support this function and they may implement it differently
    (2) and (3) use the GetPrinter API calls - see these articles
