Check result of print job

[IDEAL Software Support]

I print many documents (sometimes thousands at a time) in order using
VPE. On very rare occasions, one document may be printed out of
order. I think that this happens because the Windows print spooler
has to reprint a document, perhaps because of a network error.

For my application, it is very important that documents print in the
order I send them to the printer. Is there a call in VPE_DLL that I
can use after calling VpePrintDoc() to make sure the print job was
successful? I assume I would have to turn off print spooling?

Thanks!

There is no such call. We had experimented with such a functionality
about 2 years ago and spent weeks on getting this to work, but Windows
as well as the printer drivers were too buggy.
