PrintDocument Behavior

   Since  PrintDocument returns a "status" code, I assume the computer always "waits" for printing to complete before resuming processing.
 Is there any way to send a document to the "print spooler" before resuming processing?

TIA,
Tom

	Based on my tests on my work's network, going to a spooler is the same as sending to a printer. So whenever I have printed something to a printer which is printing something, the spooler catches it and then the function returns even though the document is not yet printed.You may want to try testing this on your network but I am pretty sure the same will happen.
