Explanation:

Comment

I can't be sure what you mean by 2001/2. I will interpret it the way it is written.

1 hour produces 2001/2

8 hours produces x

What you have is a proportion.

Solution

1/8 = 2001/2 // x Cross multiply

1*x = 2001/2 * 8 Combine

x = 8004

Answer

The printer will produce 8004 printed pages.
