Print Complete Sound

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.print_fax (More info?)

I have 2 printers on home network, HP Deskjet and Epson 820.
When printing is complete, there is no "Print Complete" sound from either
printer.
The option is checked under control panel/sounds&audio/sounds
I have XP pro & Home
Thanks for any ideas.

Well, I found a couple of options under Printers/file/server properties
I like to hear a confirmation sound when a printer is in another room..I
see no reason to throw it out of the window.
