kenp11w Posted February 28, 2006 Share Posted February 28, 2006 (edited) Hi All, I have a PC running windows 2000 professional. I would like to be able to display printer status for about 19 printers. If one of the printers has a Paper Jam or has Toner message under the status bar i would like AUTOIT to send an email. I know how to send an email via blat, but I cannot find a way for AUTOIT to read the printer status window and use the text to send the email. Does anyone have a sample or know a way to get the status from the program or window? I have included the printer window status as Word file attachment. I believe windows uses SYNTPLPR.exe do get this display of network printers. Any samples or code would be appreciated. Thanks I would be using the text from the window as variables. Variable 1= Printer name ,Variable 2 = Documents number #, Variable 3 = Status. The 3 variables would be sent via email subject lineprinterstatus.doc Edited February 28, 2006 by kenp11w Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
