Hi,

can anyone tell me if Windows keeps a log file detailing the results of printer jobs e.g. if a print job failed, or succeeded etc... and if so where is it?

I'm trying to write a small perl script that prints files using the 'dos print command'. Unfortunately this command doesn't have a return value that indicates success or failure, so I thought checking a log file might be the way to go (if one exists)

Thanks in advance.
