Setting printer error timeout

We have a VB .NET program running on XP Pro. The program detects errors as
when a printer is offline or out of paper, etc, and a message is shown in
the Windows print queue information. The problem is that it takes a long
time, maybe 60 secs for the program to figure out there's an error. I want
to be able to set the time that elapses before the error is displayed, i.e.
reduce it to say 15 secs?
Can this be done? And if so, where?

Thanks!
