Read the printer pool for the number of pages to print.

Question

I have a network printer in the classroom. I would like to record how many pages of each student were printed. I want to know how I can read the printer pool to get the number of pages when a student prints. Here is what I mean: Write a Windows service to get:

• User registered name
• The number of prints each time they print documents
• Send username + page count in remote database

What I do not know:

• how to get the number of pages with each print

If possible, I would like it to be done in VB.NET.

Thank.
