Examples

The following example shows how to use this method to resume a paused print job.

C#

internal static void HandlePausedJob(PrintSystemJobInfo theJob)
{
    // If there's no good reason for the queue to be paused, resume it and 
    // give user choice to resume or cancel the job.
    Console.WriteLine("The user or someone with administrative rights to the queue" +
         "\nhas paused the job or queue." +
         "\nResume the queue? (Has no effect if queue is not paused.)" +
         "\nEnter \"Y\" to resume, otherwise press return: ");
    String resume = Console.ReadLine();
    if (resume == "Y")
    {
        theJob.HostingPrintQueue.Resume();
        
        // It is possible the job is also paused. Find out how the user wants to handle that.
        Console.WriteLine("Does user want to resume print job or cancel it?" +
            "\nEnter \"Y\" to resume (any other key cancels the print job): ");
        String userDecision = Console.ReadLine();
        if (userDecision == "Y")
        {
            theJob.Resume();
        }
        else
        {
            theJob.Cancel();
        }
    }//end if the queue should be resumed
}//end HandlePausedJob

Remarks

The hosting PrintQueue also has Pause and Resume methods. If the print queue is paused, resuming an individual job does not resume the printing of the print job.
