dotnet sdk : FindFirstPrinterChangeNotification - no job completed received

I am using the FindFirstPrinterChangeNotification to determone print usage.
I get an intermittent problem (normally with very small docs) where I don't
always get a notification that the job has been completed (I get the New and
processing only).

Does anyone have any idea how/why this may happen?

Thanks

I believe it is because things happen too fast to be updated within the
spooler's notification capability. I had to check the actual spool
file by opening it and finding the number of bytes in the file! This
was the only way I found to use this API reliably.
