Thanks, Taco! That works in my mwe. I added way=bytext in my env file
and the output is just what I need.
Why don't you use sub pages?
\starttext
%\setupsubpagenumber[start=5]\resetsubpagenumber
\setcounter[subpage][5]
\startTEXpage
\samplefile{

Hi Alan,
Sorry, I should have actually tried your MWE. You do *not* want
way=bypage here, as that resets the counter to one at the start
of the next page (it is useful for footnotes that are numbered
per-page, but not for actual page counters).
\definecounter[volpage][type=page]
\starttext
\setc
Hi, Taco—
Thanks for the suggestion. I have tried it with \incrementcounter before
and after the TEXpage. Sadly, neither worked.
This mwe is an attempt to capture the failure of the following in
processing a product with numerous components:
\definecounter[volpage][type=page, way=bypage]
\setupf
Hi,
Incrementing the counter outside of the TEXpage should work.
Best wishes,
Taco
