There have been several comments in the context of "I don't want to switch
my LaserPrinter out of PostScript to print something because I can only do
this a certain number of times before I damage the EEROM which stores config-
uration information".  This seems reasonable, except that on all the laser
printers I deal with, there is a page counter maintained internally (and 
printed for information on the start page).  If this doesn't live in the 
EEROM and is therefore updated on a page basis, where does it live?  My
page counter is still going strong after 50000 pages!
