Yes, if you are using CUPS, you should have one or more page_log files
(typically found in /var/log/cups/page_log). You can have Lire produce
its standard text report on these by:

	cat page_log page_log.? | lr_run lr_log2report -o txt cups

To customize this report, specifically generating a report of the number
of sheets per user per printer (and/or sheets per printer per user), you
have to write (a) report specification(s) for this (these) report(s)
(sheets-per-user-per-printer.xml and/or sheets-per-printer-per-user.xml)
and invoke it from the report configuration for the print superservice
(print.cfg). You can set this up in your own environment by creating the
files:
	$HOME/.lire/etc/print.cfg
	$HOME/.lire/reports/print/sheets-per-user-per-printer.xml
	$HOME/.lire/reports/print/sheets-per-printer-per-user.xml

with the content as shown in the attachments, and rerun the commandline
given above, to get something like the attached sample report.

Please contribute any customizations which look generally useful to the
LogReport Lire project, for inclusion in new releases!
