This should work, i.e. using IsBusy to see if the printer is still working. http://api.openoffice.org/docs/common/ref/com/sun/star/view/PrinterDescriptor.html#IsBusy IsBusy = True while IsBusy: #get default printer pprops=document.getPrinter() properties print 'Printer is still busy' #pprops is a tuple, so use python's any, not to be confused #with OOo any, to search for a IsBusy named property IsBusy = any((x.Name == 'IsBusy' and x.Value == 1) for x in pprops) document.close(True) C. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@openoffice.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@openoffice.org
