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.
typedef struct _GtkPrintJob GtkPrintJob;
The GtkPrintJob struct contains only private members and should not be directly accessed.
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.
print_job : |
the GtkPrintJob |
user_data : |
user data that has been passed to gtk_print_job_send()
|
error : |
a GError that contains error information if the sending
of the print job failed, otherwise NULL
|
GtkPrintJob* gtk_print_job_new (const gchar *title, GtkPrinter *printer, GtkPrintSettings *settings, GtkPageSetup *page_setup);
Creates a new GtkPrintJob.
title : |
the job title |
printer : |
a GtkPrinter |
settings : |
a GtkPrintSettings |
page_setup : |
a GtkPageSetup |
Returns : | a new GtkPrintJob |
Since 2.10
GtkPrintSettings* gtk_print_job_get_settings (GtkPrintJob *job);
Gets the GtkPrintSettings of the print job.
job : |
a GtkPrintJob |
Returns : | the settings of job
|
Since 2.10
GtkPrinter* gtk_print_job_get_printer (GtkPrintJob *job);
Gets the GtkPrinter of the print job.
job : |
a GtkPrintJob |
Returns : | the printer of job
|
Since 2.10
const gchar* gtk_print_job_get_title (GtkPrintJob *job);
Gets the job title.
job : |
a GtkPrintJob |
Returns : | the title of job
|
Since 2.10
GtkPrintStatus gtk_print_job_get_status (GtkPrintJob *job);
Gets the status of the print job.
job : |
a GtkPrintJob |
Returns : | the status of job
|
Since 2.10
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()
.
job : |
a GtkPrintJob |
filename : |
the file to be printed |
error : |
return location for errors |
Returns : | FALSE if an error occurred
|
Since 2.10
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.
job : |
a GtkPrintJob |
error : |
return location for errors, or NULL
|
Returns : | the cairo surface of job
|
Since 2.10
void gtk_print_job_send (GtkPrintJob *job, GtkPrintJobCompleteFunc callback, gpointer user_data, GDestroyNotify dnotify);
Sends the print job off to the printer.
job : |
a GtkPrintJob |
callback : |
function to call when the job completes or an error occurs |
user_data : |
user data that gets passed to callback
|
dnotify : |
destroy notify for user_data
|
Since 2.10
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.
job : |
a GtkPrintJob |
track_status : |
TRUE to track status after printing
|
Since 2.10
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()
.
job : |
a GtkPrintJob |
Returns : | TRUE if print job status will be reported after printing
|
Since 2.10
printer
" property"printer" GtkPrinter : Read / Write / Construct Only
Printer to print the job to.
settings
" property"settings" GtkPrintSettings : Read / Write / Construct Only
Printer settings.
title
" property"title" gchararray : Read / Write / Construct Only
Title of the print job.
Default value: NULL
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
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.
job : |
the GtkPrintJob object on which the signal was emitted |
user_data : |
user data set when the signal handler was connected. |
