I think the best solution is to have the imagen tell the host how
many page images it processed and how many pages it printed. I am
told that when you connect the imagen to a host with a serial line,
that you get back some sort of accounting information (I don't know
what; we use the ethernet option and are very happy with it, thank
you).
I think the reason that the imagen does not return this info via
the ethernet is that it closes the connection before it's done
printing the job (presumably after it's snarfed the imPress EOF or
gets a TCP FIN or whatever). Why it does this, I don't know.
However it won't accept a new connection from the net until the
first one is closed. After accepting a new connection, it blocks
until the job header for the first job is printed. After that data
is read from the new connection.
Perhaps someone who knows something about the TCP/IP implementation
for the Imagen can shed some light here?
