- I'm trying to write a windows prog that detects whenever a print job
- starts, so that I can send data to the port, _before_ the job
- goes out. the purpose of this is to control a print sharing device

- There are no (documented) message for doing this. I feel this should
- be possible because the print spooler itself does similar stuff.
