The "Status" value tells you some of that information. The bits are defined here: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc244854.aspx Power state is a tricky thing for the system to handle. The spooler wants to allow you to submit print jobs even if the printer is off or offline, because it will probably come back at some point. I suspect you will find PRINTER_STATUS_SERVER_OFFLINE in that case. -- Tim Roberts, t...@probo.com Providenza & Boekelheide, Inc. _______________________________________________ python-win32 mailing list python-win32@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-win32
