Basically, you can't.
Once the Windows Print Spooler has sent the document to the printer, Windows has no more control or say over the document unless the printer driver provides additional capability to control it. I wouldn't count on having that capability. I haven't found very many printers that provide that capability.

(I need to tag when an invoice gets printed.)
