See : http://www.librelogiciel.com/software/PyKota/action_Presentation if you need a solution which can handle software accounting for raw jobs : PostScript (DSC compliant and binary), PDF, PCL up-to-5, PCL6 (aka PCLXL) and ESC/P2 are supported. PyKota also supports hardware accounting if your printer supports this. hth Jerome Alet -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
