GtkPrintJob

typedef struct _GtkPrintJob GtkPrintJob;

The GtkPrintJob struct contains only private members and should not be directly accessed.

GtkPrintJobCompleteFunc ()

void                (*GtkPrintJobCompleteFunc)          (GtkPrintJob *print_job,
                                                         gpointer user_data,
                                                         GError *error);

The type of callback that is passed to gtk_print_job_send(). It is called when the print job has been completely sent.

gtk_print_job_new ()

GtkPrintJob*        gtk_print_job_new                   (const gchar *title,
                                                         GtkPrinter *printer,

Since 2.10

gtk_print_job_set_source_file ()

gboolean            gtk_print_job_set_source_file       (GtkPrintJob *job,
                                                         const gchar *filename,
                                                         GError **error);

Make the GtkPrintJob send an existing document to the printing system. The file can be in any format understood by the platforms printing system (typically PostScript, but on many platforms PDF may work too). See gtk_printer_accepts_pdf() and gtk_printer_accepts_ps().

Since 2.10

gtk_print_job_get_surface ()

cairo_surface_t*    gtk_print_job_get_surface           (GtkPrintJob *job,
                                                         GError **error);

gtk_print_job_send ()

void                gtk_print_job_send                  (GtkPrintJob *job,
                                                         GtkPrintJobCompleteFunc callback,
                                                         gpointer user_data,
                                                         GDestroyNotify dnotify);

Sends the print job off to the printer.

Since 2.10

gtk_print_job_set_track_print_status ()

void                gtk_print_job_set_track_print_status
                                                        (GtkPrintJob *job,
                                                         gboolean track_status);

If track_status is TRUE, the print job will try to continue report on the status of the print job in the printer queues and printer. This can allow your application to show things like "out of paper" issues, and when the print job actually reaches the printer.

This function is often implemented using some form of polling, so it should not be enabled unless needed.

Since 2.10

gtk_print_job_get_track_print_status ()

gboolean            gtk_print_job_get_track_print_status
                                                        (GtkPrintJob *job);

Returns wheter jobs will be tracked after printing. For details, see gtk_print_job_set_track_print_status().

Since 2.10

The "page-setup" property

  "page-setup"               GtkPageSetup*         : Read / Write / Construct Only

Page Setup.

The "printer" property

  "printer"                  GtkPrinter*           : Read / Write / Construct Only

Printer to print the job to.

The "settings" property

  "settings"                 GtkPrintSettings*     : Read / Write / Construct Only

Printer settings.

The "title" property

  "title"                    gchar*                : Read / Write / Construct Only

Title of the print job.

Default value: NULL

The "track-print-status" property

  "track-print-status"       gboolean              : Read / Write

TRUE if the print job will continue to emit status-changed signals after the print data has been sent to the printer or print server.

Default value: FALSE

The "status-changed" signal

void                user_function                      (GtkPrintJob *job,
                                                        gpointer     user_data)      : Run Last

Gets emitted when the status of a job changes. The signal handler can use gtk_print_job_get_status() to obtain the new status.
