A user walks into the SIPB office, and asks how to print multiple
copies of something. I show him "man lpr". He says he tried that.
So I do "lpr -K 2 foo", "lpr -\#2 foo", and "lpr -\# 2 foo". Each
time, I get one copy. This was to meadow, but the user claimed to have
the same problem in the cluster. FWIW, foo is a text file.
