But in reality, if you use the PJL method, you will never get any reading at all if the printer is turned off right? Because it seems the PJL method is dependent on asking the printer after the job is done how many impressions were used. This information is lost if the printer is turned off right? ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- YOU MUST BE A LIST MEMBER IN ORDER TO POST TO THE LPRNG MAILING LIST The address you post from MUST be your subscription address If you need help, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] (or lprng-requests or lprng-digest-requests) with the word 'help' in the body.
