Exporting print logs with username, printer, copies printed etc.

hi,

we've enabled logging on our windows 2008 r2 print server (see link below).  windows 2008 r2, logs appear under event viewer > applications , services logs > microsoft > windows > printservices > operational log.  what's best/simplest way export list showing date, username, printer, , # of copies printed ?  otherwise, i'll have bulk export , pull out need using perl

for printer specific statistics can use splinfo.exe available in windows resource kit.  counters reset when spooler stopped , started.  data listed total jobs printed.  the event log need go correlated users printers. 

splinfo \\printserver /v
