[comp.laser-printers] Print Accounting

hellier@SKAT.USC.EDU (Chuck Hellier) (06/21/90)

USC is trying to decide how to charge students for printing.  We have
extensive AppleTalk and Novell networks, and would like to charge on a
per-page basis.  A trailer page printing after a job would be one way
to do this.

	Can the Apple Spooler effectively print out a page count trailer?
	Is there a way to implement this in the PC realm (on a HP printer)?
	Are there any utilities to analyze PC disk file output
	  and return number of pages?

Just when you thought there were no more undeveloped applications...
