It depends on what kind of printer it is for!

 

[Skif]

You have to:
1 detect the printer language used in this .prn file
2 parse the data according to the language specification
and recover number of pages in this document.

The trouble is some of these characters could appear legitimately in the
print file when it isn't the end of a page, for instance as bitmapped data
or font information. To do this properly you need to parse the print file,
this isn't going to be trivial.
