Cómo: Diagnosticar trabajos de impresión problemáticos

A menudo, los administradores de red reciben quejas de los usuarios sobre trabajos de impresión que no se imprimen o que se imprimen lentamente. El amplio conjunto de propiedades del trabajo de impresión expuesto en las API de Microsoft .NET Framework proporcionan un medio para realizar un diagnóstico remoto rápido de trabajos de impresión.

Ejemplo

Los pasos principales para crear este tipo de utilidad son los siguientes.

  1. Identificar el trabajo de impresión sobre el que se queja el usuario. Los usuarios a menudo no pueden hacer esto con precisión. Puede que no conozcan los nombres de los servidores de impresión o de las impresoras. Puede que describan la ubicación de la impresora con una terminología distinta a la utilizada en la configuración de su propiedad Location. Por lo tanto, es conveniente generar una lista de los trabajos enviados actualmente por el usuario. Si hay más de uno, la comunicación entre el usuario y el administrador del sistema de impresión puede utilizarse para identificar el trabajo que está experimentando problemas. Los pasos secundarios son los siguientes.

    1. Obtener una lista de todos los servidores de impresión.

    2. Recorrer los servidores para consultar sus colas de impresión.

    3. En cada superación del bucle de servidor, recorrer todas las colas del servidor para consultar los trabajos.

    4. En cada superación del bucle de cola, recorrer todos los trabajos y recopilar la información de identificación sobre lo enviado por el usuario que se queja.

  2. Cuando se haya identificado el trabajo de impresión problemático, examine las propiedades pertinentes para ver cuál puede ser el problema. Por ejemplo, ¿el trabajo está en estado de error o la impresora mantuvo la cola sin conexión antes de que se pudiera imprimir el trabajo?

El código siguiente es una serie de ejemplos de código. El primer ejemplo de código contiene el recorrido por las colas de impresión. (Paso 1c anterior). La variable myPrintQueues es el objeto PrintQueueCollection del servidor de impresión actual.

El ejemplo de código comienza actualizando el objeto de cola de impresión actual con PrintQueue.Refresh. Esto garantiza que las propiedades del objeto representan con precisión el estado de la impresora física a la que hace referencia. A continuación, la aplicación obtiene la colección de trabajos de impresión que se encuentra actualmente en la cola de impresión mediante GetPrintJobInfoCollection.

A continuación, la aplicación recorre la colección PrintSystemJobInfo y compara cada propiedad Submitter con el alias del usuario demandante. Si coinciden, la aplicación agrega información de identificación sobre el trabajo a la cadena que se mostrará. (Las variables userName y jobList se inicializan anteriormente en la aplicación).

for each (PrintQueue^ pq in myPrintQueues)
{
   pq->Refresh();
   PrintJobInfoCollection^ jobs = pq->GetPrintJobInfoCollection();
   for each (PrintSystemJobInfo^ job in jobs)
   {
      // Since the user may not be able to articulate which job is problematic,
      // present information about each job the user has submitted.
      if (job->Submitter == userName)
      {
         atLeastOne = true;
         jobList = jobList + "\nServer:" + line;
         jobList = jobList + "\n\tQueue:" + pq->Name;
         jobList = jobList + "\n\tLocation:" + pq->Location;
         jobList = jobList + "\n\t\tJob: " + job->JobName + " ID: " + job->JobIdentifier;
      }
   }
}
foreach (PrintQueue pq in myPrintQueues)
{
    pq.Refresh();
    PrintJobInfoCollection jobs = pq.GetPrintJobInfoCollection();
    foreach (PrintSystemJobInfo job in jobs)
    {
        // Since the user may not be able to articulate which job is problematic,
        // present information about each job the user has submitted.
        if (job.Submitter == userName)
        {
            atLeastOne = true;
            jobList = jobList + "\nServer:" + line;
            jobList = jobList + "\n\tQueue:" + pq.Name;
            jobList = jobList + "\n\tLocation:" + pq.Location;
            jobList = jobList + "\n\t\tJob: " + job.JobName + " ID: " + job.JobIdentifier;
        }
    }// end for each print job
}// end for each print queue
For Each pq As PrintQueue In myPrintQueues
    pq.Refresh()
    Dim jobs As PrintJobInfoCollection = pq.GetPrintJobInfoCollection()
    For Each job As PrintSystemJobInfo In jobs
        ' Since the user may not be able to articulate which job is problematic,
        ' present information about each job the user has submitted.
        If job.Submitter = userName Then
            atLeastOne = True
            jobList = jobList & vbLf & "Server:" & line
            jobList = jobList & vbLf & vbTab & "Queue:" & pq.Name
            jobList = jobList & vbLf & vbTab & "Location:" & pq.Location
            jobList = jobList & vbLf & vbTab & vbTab & "Job: " & job.JobName & " ID: " & job.JobIdentifier
        End If
    Next job ' end for each print job

Next pq ' end for each print queue

En el ejemplo de código siguiente se toma la aplicación en el paso 2. (Vea más arriba). Se ha identificado el trabajo problemático y la aplicación solicita la información que lo identificará. A partir de esta información crea los objetos PrintServer, PrintQueue y PrintSystemJobInfo.

En este punto, la aplicación contiene una estructura de bifurcación correspondiente a las dos maneras de comprobar el estado de un trabajo de impresión:

En este ejemplo se muestran ambos métodos, por lo que se le preguntó al usuario anteriormente qué método utilizar y respondió con "Y" si quería utilizar los marcadores de la propiedad JobStatus. A continuación encontrará los detalles de los dos métodos. Por último, la aplicación utiliza un método denominado ReportQueueAndJobAvailability para informar de si el trabajo se puede imprimir a esta hora del día. Este método se trata en Detectar si un trabajo de impresión se puede imprimir en esta hora del día.

// When the problematic print job has been identified, enter information about it.
Console::Write("\nEnter the print server hosting the job (including leading slashes \\\\): " + "\n(press Return for the current computer \\\\{0}): ", Environment::MachineName);
String^ pServer = Console::ReadLine();
if (pServer == "")
{
   pServer = "\\\\" + Environment::MachineName;
}
Console::Write("\nEnter the print queue hosting the job: ");
String^ pQueue = Console::ReadLine();
Console::Write("\nEnter the job ID: ");
Int16 jobID = Convert::ToInt16(Console::ReadLine());

// Create objects to represent the server, queue, and print job.
PrintServer^ hostingServer = gcnew PrintServer(pServer, PrintSystemDesiredAccess::AdministrateServer);
PrintQueue^ hostingQueue = gcnew PrintQueue(hostingServer, pQueue, PrintSystemDesiredAccess::AdministratePrinter);
PrintSystemJobInfo^ theJob = hostingQueue->GetJob(jobID);

if (useAttributesResponse == "Y")
{

Para comprobar el estado del trabajo de impresión mediante los marcadores de la propiedad JobStatus, se comprueba cada marcador pertinente para ver si está establecido. El modo estándar para ver si un bit se establece en un conjunto de marcadores de bits es realizar una operación AND lógica con el conjunto de marcadores como uno de los operandos y la propia marca como el otro. Puesto que el propio marcador solo tiene un bit establecido, el resultado del operador lógico AND es que, como máximo, se establezca ese mismo bit. Para averiguar si esto ocurre o no, basta con comparar el resultado del operador lógico AND y el propio marcador. Para obtener más información, consulte PrintJobStatus, el operador & (referencia de C#) y FlagsAttribute.

El código informa de cada atributo cuyo bit esté establecido en la pantalla de la consola y a veces sugiere una manera de responder. (A continuación se describe el método HandlePausedJob que se llama si el trabajo o la cola está en pausa).

El método HandlePausedJob permite que los usuarios de la aplicación reanuden remotamente los trabajos en pausa. Puesto que puede haber una buena razón de por qué se pausó la cola de impresión, el método comienza solicitando al usuario una decisión sobre la reanudación. Si la respuesta es "Y", se llama al método PrintQueue.Resume.

A continuación se solicita al usuario que decida si se debe reanudar el propio trabajo, en caso de que se esté en pausa independientemente de la cola de impresión. (Compare PrintQueue.IsPaused y PrintSystemJobInfo.IsPaused). Si la respuesta es "Y", se llama a PrintSystemJobInfo.Resume; en caso contrario se llama a Cancel.
