917.0. "JetDirect & multicopies problem" by ATHINA::TSAKALOS () Wed Mar 05 1997 19:44

    Hello all,
    
    Customer has connected an HP LaserJet 4V printer on a JetDirect
    EX Plus3.
    The JetDirect connects with UTP on a hub and the printer through
    its parallel port on the first of the three ports of the 
    JetDirect.
    They have configured the printer under Digital Unix V4.0 as remote
    printer with the following printcap entry:
    
    lp6|6:\
    
        :lf=/usr/adm/lp6err:\
        :lp=:\
        :rm=start-hpadmin3:\
        :rp=text:\
        :sd=/usr/spool/lpd6:\
        :sh:
    
    The problem is that the lpr command with multiple options doesn't
    work, e.g: lpr -#3 /etc/motd
    it prints only once.
    
    Has anyone seen this before and if yes is there any way to get 
    more than one copy ?
    
    Thanking you in advance
    Best regards
    Thanos
