    Is it possible to monitor file printing?

    Is there any way to monitor what a user is printing (via local or network printer) as I need to log it (or be alerted) if the printing contains some key words?

    Take a look at these functions on MSDN.

    You can definitly watch the printer, but you can not change the text words, as the data is not sent in ascii or readable text.
