Need Help??

Did you check that node?

It doesn't answer the question, and the OP is trying to use Win32::Printer::Enum like that node suggests

Yes I checked that thread but that didn't answer the question of clearing print queues. I used Win32::Printer::Enum as it suggested in that thread. I'm new to use Perl in windows and any help would be greatly appreciated.	[reply]

This seems to be a non-trivial problem, but maybe some of the more Win32 minded Monks can help, using the following resources as some inspiration: Re: Printing in NT List of resources of VB programmers wanting to control print jobs Stack Overflow question about controlling printing in Windows using Perl It seems like using Win32::API in conjunction with the winspool.drv DLL and calling SetJob with a null job will do the trick, but I can't give you the exact code that would accomplish this	[reply]
