yes. RAW requests do not go through the usual CUPS print system and so page accounting can't be done. RAW always counts as 1 page. also note that if your printer jams during a print job, CUPS will still count the pages even if they didn't print. so even w/out RAW, your CUPS totals can only ever be approximate, not relied upon as exact. good news is that there are native Windows drivers for CUPS now. they are non-free, but freely redistributable. there was just recently a HUGE thread on kde-promo about these drivers and including them on KDE's Knoppix-based live demo CD. RMS was, naturally, against it but the pragmatics in the crowd (most KDE people =) saw it is a good thing. anyways, look for the native Windows CUPS drivers (you can export them to your Samba server like any Windows driver, apparently..) and you should get semi-accurate ;-) page accounting.. - -- Aaron J.
