System name:		grobda.mit.edu
Type and version:	i686 9.4.34 (with mkserv)
Display type:		nVidia Corporation NV11 [GeForce2 MX/MX 400] (rev b2)

Shell:			/bin/athena/tcsh
Window manager:		unknown

What were you trying to do?
Print multiple copies to a non-Athena printer.

What's wrong:
[~ grobda]% lpr -Pjarthur -#2 empty.ps

[~ grobda]% lpr -Pa@b.mit.edu -#2 empty.ps
Fatal error - Maximum of 1 copies allowed

I can print multiple copies to Athena printers, but not to non-Athena
printers.  (I replaced the actual printer I was trying to print to
with a@b.mit.edu, but the same error occurs with the real printer.)

What should have happened:
I should be able to print multiple copies to any printer.

Please describe any relevant documentation references:
