This is my first posting so I hope I get through OK.

We have a similar request here at Manchester and I've come to the same
problem.Help on this would be appreciated.

The HP lasetjet manual and HP have told me that the number of pages
printed is stored in the printer but that there is no way to access it.
The only way to see it is to print the test page.  Does anyone out there 
know any method of getting this info into the workstation.
We are running Version 7.0 of HP-UX  on HP9000 s340 workstations.

Thanks in advance
Rick Kruze.
