Page numbers are stored in the file with an extension of ".apnx" which is in the "Sidecar" folder associated with the book on the Kindle. If that file exists, you have page numbers; if it doesn't exist, you don't. The apnx file can either be sent by Amazon (if you download the book directly from Amazon) or can be created and sent by Calibre.

There's really nothing complicated about it.
