方法: 問題のある印刷ジョブを診断する
ネットワーク管理者は、印刷ジョブが印刷されない、または印刷が遅いというユーザーからの苦情をよく処理します。 Microsoft .NET Framework の API で公開される印刷ジョブプロパティの豊富なセットは、印刷ジョブの迅速なリモート診断を実行するための手段を提供します。
例
この種のユーティリティを作成する主な手順は次のとおりです。
ユーザーが不平を言っている印刷ジョブを特定します。 多くの場合、ユーザーはこれを正確に行うことはできません。 プリント サーバーまたはプリンターの名前がわからない可能性があります。 プリンターの場所は、Location プロパティの設定で使用されたものとは異なる用語で記述できます。 したがって、ユーザーの現在送信されているジョブの一覧を生成することをお勧めします。 複数ある場合は、ユーザーと印刷システム管理者の間の通信を使用して、問題が発生しているジョブを特定できます。 サブステップは次のとおりです。
すべてのプリント サーバーの一覧を取得します。
各サーバーを巡回し、印刷キューを照会します。
サーバー ループの各パス内で、すべてのサーバーのキューをループしてジョブのクエリを実行します
キュー ループの各パス内で、ジョブを繰り返し処理し、苦情を申し立てたユーザーによって送信されたジョブに関する特定の情報を収集します。
問題のある印刷ジョブが特定されたら、関連するプロパティを調べて、問題の原因を確認します。 たとえば、ジョブがエラー状態であるか、ジョブを印刷する前にキューにサービスを提供しているプリンターがオフラインになっていますか?
次のコードは、一連のコード例です。 最初のコード例には、印刷キューのループが含まれています。 (上記の手順 1c)。変数 myPrintQueues
は、現在のプリント サーバーの PrintQueueCollection オブジェクトです。
このコード例では、現在の印刷キュー オブジェクトを PrintQueue.Refreshで更新することから始めます。 これにより、オブジェクトのプロパティは、オブジェクトが表す物理プリンターの状態を正確に表します。 次に、アプリケーションは、GetPrintJobInfoCollectionを使用して、現在印刷キューにある印刷ジョブのコレクションを取得します。
次に、アプリケーションは PrintSystemJobInfo コレクションをループ処理し、各 Submitter プロパティを、苦情を申し立てたユーザーのエイリアスと比較します。 一致する場合、アプリケーションはジョブに関する識別情報を、表示される文字列に追加します。 (userName
変数と jobList
変数は、アプリケーションの前の方で初期化されます)。
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
次のコード例では、手順 2 でアプリケーションを選択します。 (上記を参照)。問題のあるジョブが特定され、アプリケーションによって識別される情報の入力が求められます。 この情報から、PrintServer、PrintQueue、および PrintSystemJobInfo オブジェクトが作成されます。
この時点で、アプリケーションには、印刷ジョブの状態を確認する 2 つの方法に対応する分岐構造が含まれています。
PrintJobStatus型の JobStatus プロパティのフラグを読み取ることができます。
この例では両方のメソッドを示しています。そのため、ユーザーは以前に使用するメソッドを求め、JobStatus プロパティのフラグを使用する場合は "Y" で応答しました。 2 つのメソッドの詳細については、以下を参照してください。 最後に、アプリケーションは ReportQueueAndJobAvailability と呼ばれるメソッドを使用して、ジョブをこの時間帯に印刷できるかどうかを報告します。 この方法については、「この時間帯に印刷ジョブを印刷できるかどうかを検出する」で説明します。

JobStatus プロパティのフラグを使用して印刷ジョブの状態を確認するには、関連する各フラグが設定されているかどうかを確認します。 一方のビットが一連のビット フラグで設定されているかどうかを確認する標準的な方法は、フラグのセットを 1 つのオペランドとして、フラグ自体を他方として論理 AND 演算を実行することです。 フラグ自体には 1 つのビットしか設定されていないので、論理 AND の結果は、最大でも同じビットが設定されます。 それがそうでないかどうかを調べるには、論理 AND の結果をフラグ自体と比較するだけです。 詳細については、PrintJobStatus、& 演算子 (C# リファレンス)、および FlagsAttributeを参照してください。
ビットが設定されている各属性について、コードはこれをコンソール画面に報告し、応答する方法を提案する場合があります。 (HandlePausedJob ジョブまたはキューが一時停止した場合に呼び出されるメソッドについては、以下で説明します)。

HandlePausedJob メソッドを使用すると、アプリケーションのユーザーは一時停止したジョブをリモートで再開できます。 印刷キューが一時停止された理由は十分にある可能性があるため、このメソッドはまず、再開するかどうかのユーザー決定を求めることから始まります。 答えが "Y" の場合は、PrintQueue.Resume メソッドが呼び出されます。
次に、印刷キューとは別に一時停止された場合に備えて、ジョブ自体を再開するかどうかを決定するように求められます。 (PrintQueue.IsPaused と PrintSystemJobInfo.IsPausedを比較します。答えが"Y"の場合、PrintSystemJobInfo.Resume が呼び出されます。それ以外の場合は Cancel が呼び出されます。
