Looking through the manuals that came with our Pacific Page PostScript
cartridge for the LaserJet II, I have been unable to find out if I can get
a report from the printer on how many pages have been printed.

On the hp cartridge I send the command.

statusdict begin
pagecount =
^D

Does the Pacific Page cartridge respond to this? Does it send anything back?
I am trying to reed this on an hp from the parallel port, has anyone done this?

Thanks.
