Unfortunately they've decided against fixing this problem upstream
finally, see their BTS link above.

If you know for sure these datas were produced with foomatic maybe you
could see if its authors would mind putting their Kyocera Prescribe code
sequence as part of a @PJL COMMENT as proposed, and if Kyocera printers
would still support such a construct (I don't have such a printer so I
can't tell)

As an alternative just create a new ticket on http://trac.pykota.com,
and I'll try to add some filtering facility to pkpgcounter.

(you can do both if you want)

bye
