I'm just glad you happened to post a query for which I had a useful
answer.....actually, after reading your original post, I tried to
print two copies of a flie on my printers, and got a message that one
copy maximum was the default. That's what got me to hunting.
So, thanks to your query, I've also resolved a problem I didn't
even know I had.
Best,
Tom
