Use a PostScript driver so that the pstops CUPS filter is not
bypassed and can understand the job's datas, this way it will
put the correct numbers in the page_log file. (also don't forget
to NOT print in raw mode)

As an alternative you could use a real print accounting solution
for CUPS. I was told that many exist.
