Details

A gtk-printer object represents a printer. You only need to deal directly with printers if you use the non-portable gtk-print-unix-dialog API.

A gtk-printer object allows to get status information about the printer, such as its description, its location, the number of queued jobs, etc. Most importantly, a gtk-printer object can be used to create a gtk-print-job object, which lets you print to the printer.

Signal Details

The "details-acquired" signal

 lambda (printer success)    :run-last

Gets emitted in response to a request for detailed information about a printer from the print backend. The success parameter indicates if the information was actually obtained.

printer: The gtk-printer object on which the signal is emitted.
success: True if the details were successfully acquired.
