Description
A GtkPrintJob object represents a job that is sent to a printer. You only need to deal directly with print jobs if you use the non-portable GtkPrintUnixDialog API.
Use gtk_print_job_get_surface() to obtain the cairo surface
onto which the pages must be drawn. Use gtk_print_job_send()
to send the finished job to the printer. If you don't use cairo
GtkPrintJob also supports printing of manually generated postscript,
via gtk_print_job_set_source_file().
Printing support was added in GTK+ 2.10.
Functions
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.
Parameters
print_job |
the GtkPrintJob |
|
user_data |
user data that has been passed to |
|
error |
a GError that contains error information if the sending
of the print job failed, otherwise |
gtk_print_job_new ()
GtkPrintJob * gtk_print_job_new (const gchar *title,GtkPrinter *printer,GtkPrintSettings *settings,GtkPageSetup *page_setup);
Creates a new GtkPrintJob.
Since 2.10
gtk_print_job_get_settings ()
GtkPrintSettings *
gtk_print_job_get_settings (GtkPrintJob *job);
Gets the GtkPrintSettings of the print job.
Since 2.10
gtk_print_job_get_printer ()
GtkPrinter *
gtk_print_job_get_printer (GtkPrintJob *job);
Gets the GtkPrinter of the print job.
Since 2.10
gtk_print_job_get_title ()
const gchar *
gtk_print_job_get_title (GtkPrintJob *job);
Gets the job title.
Since 2.10
gtk_print_job_get_status ()
GtkPrintStatus
gtk_print_job_get_status (GtkPrintJob *job);
Gets the status of the print job.
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);
Gets a cairo surface onto which the pages of the print job should be rendered.
Since 2.10
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.
Parameters
job |
a GtkPrintJob |
|
callback |
function to call when the job completes or an error occurs |
|
user_data |
user data that gets passed to |
|
dnotify |
destroy notify for |
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
Property Details
The “page-setup” property
“page-setup” GtkPageSetup *
Page Setup.
Flags: Read / Write / Construct Only
The “printer” property
“printer” GtkPrinter *
Printer to print the job to.
Flags: Read / Write / Construct Only
The “settings” property
“settings” GtkPrintSettings *
Printer settings.
Flags: Read / Write / Construct Only
The “title” property
“title” gchar *
Title of the print job.
Flags: Read / Write / Construct Only
Default value: NULL
The “track-print-status” property
“track-print-status” gboolean
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.
Flags: Read / Write
Default value: FALSE
Signal Details
The “status-changed” signal
void user_function (GtkPrintJob *job, gpointer user_data)
Gets emitted when the status of a job changes. The signal handler
can use gtk_print_job_get_status() to obtain the new status.
Parameters
job |
the GtkPrintJob object on which the signal was emitted |
|
user_data |
user data set when the signal handler was connected. |
Flags: Run Last
