A quick summary of the help I got on my query about getting a count of the
pages printed by a HP series II.

The consensus seems to be that the only easy way to get a page count after
each job is to print out the test page which contains a page count for the
machine. This can be done with a <esc> Z spooled after the print job, or by
holding the "print fonts/test" button down for one second.

Thanks to the 2 people who replied, hope this helps the people who sent me
mail asking for the same information.
