I have
SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 11 (x86_64) VERSION = 11 PATCHLEVEL = 3
cups-1.5.4-147.1
hplip-3.14.4-97.1
For all printers - including HP Laserjet 600 M602 - page logging works fine,
but for HP Color Laserjet CP4525 I do not get entries in the page_log file.
This can be approved by cups debugging, for the Laserjet 600 I see:
D [21/May/2014:14:41:17 +0200] [Job 7] PAGE: 1 1

for CP4525 I do not get this PAGE lines in the error_log and no
lines in the page_log
