your operating system.

<osman26y@gmail.comwrites1 it depends on the OS where the printer spool is and how to redirect it
See an OS specific NG

2 You will have to find out what the format of the printer file is.
Go to the printer manufacturers web site for that.

3 you will need to understand the JPG format.
See www.wotsit.org or go to the JPG NG.

4 When you have done all that (it's called research) come back here if
you have an C specific questions. Most questions regarding the compiler
can be found on the compiler vendors web site or a compiler specific NG

As others have already noted, what you're asking needs system specific
routines to accomplish. I suspect that the methods is different for
Windows and Linux.

For Linux try comp.unix.programmer, comp.os.linux.* etc.
For Windows try comp.os.ms-windows.programming, MSDN etc.

There're also several excellent websites and mailing lists for both
platforms. A quick search will turn up more than you can chew.
