QUESTION
The code below is a Web API that prints on behalf of a SPA. For brevity I've omitted using
statements and the actual printing logic. That stuff all works fine. The point of interest is refactoring of the printing logic onto a background thread, with the web api method enqueuing a job. I did this because print jobs sent in quick succession were interfering with each other with only the last job printing.
It solves the problem of serialising print jobs but raises the question of how to detect shutdown and signal the loop to terminate.

Answered 2018-Nov-20 at 12:05I would look at your architecture at a higher level, doing 'long running tasks' such as printing should probably live outside of you webapi process entirely.
If this we myself I would:
Create a windows service (or what have you) that has all the printing logic in it, the job of the controller is then to just talk to the service either by http or some kind of queue MSMQ, RabbitMQ, ServiceBus etc.
If via http then the service should internally queue up the print jobs and return 200/201 to the controller as soon as possible (before printing happens) so that the controller can return to the client efficiently and release it's resources.
If via a queuing technology then the controller should place a message on the queue and again return 200/201 as quick as possible, the service can then read the messages at it's own rate and print one at a time.
Doing it this way removes overhead from your api and also the possibility of losing print jobs in the case of a failure in the webapi (if the api crashes any background threads may/will be effected). Also what if you do a deployment at the point of someone printing, there's a high chance the print job will fail.
My 2 cents worth

Install webprint
Set up the printer(s) you want to share on a Windows machine and insure it works well locally.
Install PrintFile (installer is in prf32-216.zip under tools). This is a tool that allows printing from the command line in Windows.
Use PrintFile to set up the printer(s) so that you can print a document from the command line. The UI is fairly simple to use and the instructions are good. Note down the name(s) of the printer(s) - you’ll need them.
Checkout/download Webprint somewhere on the computer connected to the printer(s) you’ve set up. You’ll need Ruby >= 1.9.2 to do that. Once you have Webprint somewhere, navigate to its root directory and run:
Edit the file WEBPRINT_ROOT/config/printers to contain the names of the printers set up on the computer. These need to be the exact names of the printers as you set them up in PrintFile in step 3.
Finally, from WEBPRINT_ROOT run
