Hmmm.. You might look at the lpng package for starters. I believe
from what I remember of it, that it was designed to keep track of
users print volumes at a university. I'm not sure how you'd bill, but
there might be info or hints in the package. Also, there's a package
on sourceforge that was developed to manage printing at CISCO and it
may contain chargeback features.
