gtk:print-job-track-print-status (object)

object -- a gtk:print-job object
status -- true to track status after printing

Accessor of the track-print-status slot of the gtk:print-job class. The gtk:print-job-track-print-status function returns whether jobs will be tracked after printing.

If the status argument is true, the print job will try to continue report on the status of the print job in the printer queues and printer.

This can allow your application to show things like "out of paper" issues, and when the print job actually reaches the printer. This function is often implemented using some form of polling, so it should not be enabled unless needed.
