I tried setting pagecount_poll to higher values but there's no change. I know the printer correctly counts the number of pages (seen on the maintenance page).
Here's the printer informations :
HP JetDirect: J4169A
Firmware Version: L.21.11
Manufacturing ID: 41254125902007
Date Manufactured: 06/2001
Any idea would be helpful,

Try larger values of pagecount_poll, and also try printing one of those
maintenance pages or what have you to see if the actual page count on the
printer is working properly. I have a malfunctioning 4100 that will not
pagecount ACCURATELY, but with the 15 second delay, it's at least
tolerable I suppose. I gave up trying to do better because HP didn't seem
concerned about fixing it particularly (though it's screwing up about 30%
of my accounting data, which is very unfortunate -- we'll see the coming
year whether it will matter enough to try again with HP).
What are the versions of your printer firmware, jetdirect firmware, and
the like?
