Counting the number of pages to be printed

I am working on a kiosk program. I would like to be able to provide printing capability but I need to be able to count the number of pages that will be printed before it starts printing in order to inform the user of the cost. Any suggestion on how I could do this ?

Are you using quick report ??
Or you already using a sort of report-printer, or do you have to make one yourself?
You can preview report and count the number of pages manually :)
Also you know the printer page height and width, and your fond height and width, so you can count ho much space it needs.
