Hello, Friends and Friends of Friends.
php_printer.dll hasn't had a PECL version since 4.0.7 so I've been rebuilding the dll using a few steps I learned by asking for help here. You can see those posts Below.

The Following is specifically what I did for XAMPP with PHP 5.6.8
Working PHP_PRINTER.DLL for PHP 5.6.8 for Windows can be found here:

The guide I Heavily used in this process:

Step 1 Download and INSTALL Microsoft Visual Studios, a Free Version should be available. I used Microsoft Visual Studio Ultimate 2012 https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/downloa ... x?id=30678
Step 2 Download php-sdk-binary tools I downloaded (php-sdk-binary-tools-20110915.zip) http://windows.php.net/downloads/php-sdk/
Step 3 Unzipped this file into the c:\php-sdk folder you may have to create.
Step 4 Open Visual Studios Command Prompt (Windows 7 Search) CODE: SELECT ALL VS2012 x86 Native Tools Command Prompt
Step 5
Proceeded with the following instructions:
CODE: SELECT ALL
cd c:\php-sdk
bin\phpsdk_setvars.bat
bin\phpsdk_buildtree.bat phpdev
Step 6 Open the php-sdk\phpdev Copy and paste vc9 and rename it vc11
Step 7 Download the the source that matches your version of PHP http://windows.php.net/downloads/releases/
I downloaded (php-5.6.8-src.zip) which is in the Archives now http://windows.php.net/downloads/releases/archives/
Step 8 Unzip this file into C:\php-sdk\phpdev\vc11\x86 Will look like: C:\php-sdk\phpdev\vc11\x86\php-5.6.8-src\
Step 9 Download the dependencies I downloaded (deps-5.6-vc11-x64.7z) http://windows.php.net/downloads/php-sdk/
Step 10 Place Dependencies in C:\php-sdk\phpdev\vc11\x86\
Step 11 Get your extension's build files. php_printer was here (http://svn.php.net/repository/pecl/printer/trunk/) I had to change all the pval to zval int the printer. "Open 'printer.c' and replace all instances of 'pval' with 'zval' and it should compile." I put those files into C:\php-sdk\phpdev\vc11\x86\php-5.6.8-src\ext\printer
Step 12 Proceeded with the following code commands in the "VS2012 x86 Native Tools Command Prompt" CODE: SELECT ALL cd c:\php-sdk\phpdev\vc11\x86\php-5.6.8-src buildconf configure --enable-printer=shared
Also have used: CODE: SELECT ALL c:\php-sdk\phpdev\vc11\x86\php5.5-201406241830>configure --disable-all --enable-printer=shared
CODE: SELECT ALL configure --disable-all --enable-printer=shared --enable-phpdbg
Step 13 CODE: SELECT ALL nmake
Step 14 Once it's down you should see a "Release_TS" folder in the C:\php-sdk\phpdev\vc11\x86\php56 folder In that folder you should find your dll
