Hi.
I know that I can't check from VisualFoxPro if the printer is ready.
I was thinking if there is a way to get the printer status
from Windows as the "Printer and Fax" manager do.
When you open "Printer and fax" from start menu
you can see that if a printer is OFF the status shows
"offline" (if you have set icons view to "Tiles").
If you turn the printer ON the status shows "Ready".
Somehow "Printer and fax" manager gets the printer status
from somewhere.
