In the interest of full disclosure, the actual text, inserted into a last lonely page is:

This book was created using eScape. An Open Office Writer document to ePub Converter

I wouldn't say it's the same as the "printed by..." info in paperback books. First, that information doesn't have an exclusive full page in a book (it's usually in the same page with all the publication info).
Traditionally, this information did have it's own page, usually at the very end of a book (after the index), and was called the Colophon. The colophon included all sorts of interesting tidbits of information, what printing press, what font, what paper was used for the book. It was a good place for typesetters to provide details about the book itself rather than about the manuscript (copyright page).
