' ##MODULE_DESCRIPTION This class provides the properties and methods _
for a getting information about and controlling a printer or print queue.

' ##MODULE_DESCRIPTION You can use this to get information about the status _
of any of the printers installed and (subject to having access rights) to _
control that printer.

' ##ENUMERATION_DESCRIPTION Printer_Control_Commands are sent to the printer to perform actions _
that control the current printer's job(s)

that this information is provided by the printer driver and in many cases the status will always be _
"Ready" unless there is one or more jobs in error on that printer.
