上面是判断打印机是否连机的。
下面是判断打印任务是否正常完成的：
    SetTimer(1,500,NULL);//用定时器来完成

响应函数：
switch(nIDEvent)
    {
    case 1:
        {
            JOB_INFO_2  *pJobs;
       int         cJobs,
                   i;
       DWORD       dwPrinterStatus;
       if (!GetJobs(hPrinter, &pJobs, &cJobs, &dwPrinterStatus))
            return ;

       for (i=0; i < cJobs; i++)
       {
           if (pJobs[i].Status &
                   (JOB_STATUS_ERROR |
                   JOB_STATUS_OFFLINE |
                   JOB_STATUS_PAPEROUT |
                   JOB_STATUS_BLOCKED_DEVQ))
               {                  
                   KillTimer(1);
                   AfxMessageBox(pJobs[i].pDocument);
