[Printing-user-general] CUPS - can only print 1 copy

Hello,

Ok, here is my problem and it's driving me nuts! I searched everywhere for a
solution and now I'm left with asking for help from my fellow experts.

I have CUPS running and printing works ok, I have 10 printers
installed/configured with no problems.

The only problem I have is when I issue the command:

date | lp -dprinter1 -n 2

I only get 1 copy... this is with all 10 printers, same result.

I even tried date | lpr -P printer1 -# 3, same thing...

Can someone shed some light as to why I cannot print multiple copies???

This is really frustrating...

I would greatly appreciate any help!

Thank you,

Pantelis
