Once you know how to get additional information about the printer you will notice that one of the bits of information returned is the Pending Jobs count. This tells you how many jobs are queued up on that printer waiting to print out. Of course just having a count of the number of pending jobs is only partly useful. It would be more useful to get a list of the jobs pending and some information about them, such as the document name, user name, pages printed so far etc.. The EnumPrintJobs API call provides this functionality.
