How to get the original full file path been printed by Spooler API

try
{
    ManagementObjectSearcher searcher = new ManagementObjectSearcher("root\\CIMV2","SELECT * FROM Win32_PrintJob");
}

foreach (ManagementObject queryObj in searcher.Get())
{
    Console.WriteLine("Document: {0}", queryObj["Document"]);
}

This gives the document name, I need the location of the file.

Once the document is passed to the spooler, it will not have any reference to this information. See here for info on what fields are stored in Win32_PrintJob

you could send additional information on the job in the parameters if it is you submitting the print job. – Rob Hardy Oct 11 '12 at 15:57
