Cp1215 doesn't print multiple copies

After a Windows update on my Window 7 64-bit Home Premium desktop, I am unable to print more than one copy of any document at a time from any software or web app using my cp1215. I use the printer to print for my classroom (eg 20+ copies of one doc at a time), so I really need this.
The problem began in March, and will resolve if I roll back the Windows update. There are about 50 individual update items, so I have no clue how to isolate this. I have tried uninstalling the printer before using Windows update and doing a complete reinstall with the latest drivers (4/13) with no luck.
Any idea how to solve this? I don't want to go too long without keeping up with Windows security updates. Thanks!

OK, I updated in groups of five to see if I could isolate which updates might have messed up the printer. It appears be two of the "Update for Microsoft .NET Framework 4 on XP, Server 2003, Vista, Windows 7, Server 2008, Server 2008 R2 for X64." (KB2600217, KB2656351)
So, the bulk of the Windows Updates are completed and I can still print multiple copies. At this point, though, neither of the updates above will install (they say they install, but they appear again in the update list after a reboot), so I can't be sure. I'm pretty sure they installed each time I did a bulk install.
Right now, I can print multiple copies and I am only missing two updates. Just to be complete, I ran the HP Print & Scan Doctor, and it reports that everything is fine with the printer.

Laserjet 5000 with windows 7 driver cannot print multiple copies unless disabling mopier

Customer has Laserjet 5000 that they have been using for approx 5 years. It is connected to one computer with the standard parallel cable and the driver is using lpt1. It is used mainly to print word documents and a multi page publisher document. The computer used to be a windows xp computer and all worked well with the PCL6 driver and that is the only driver that was used
They just bought a new Windows 7 32 bit computer and now it has lost some of the functionality.
The first driver that was loaded was the driver that Windows 7 used after you use the windows update button that you get during the add printer wizard. I think it was the pcl 5 driver as that is the driver that the computer will install if you remove the printer and then restart the computer. Using this driver, when you choose to print more than one page or multiple copies, it will just print the first page or copy and there will not be any errors displayed.
I have since downloaded the PCL6 driver, PS driver and PCL5 driver from HP's website and tried all of them.
The PS driver will print more than one page, but when it gets to about the 4th page the printer prints out an error page. The error is PCL XL error, Subsystem: Kernel, Error: Unsupported protocol, Operator 0x0, Position:0
The PCl 6 driver will print the same error page and not print any print jobs, even if it is just a single page, single copy job.
The pcl 5 driver prints one page and then stops printing, no errors.
When I disable the mopier under device settings, the pcl5 driver will print everything just fine. Only problem is, it will not collate. The collate checkbox is available and checked when we try the multiple page multiple copy publisher document, but it just prints out as if we do not have collate checked. If we could get collation to work, than we are good to go.
I have not tried the PS driver with the mopier disabled.
The PCL6 driver stills returns the pcl xl error with the mopier disabled.
The printer does not have any extra memory, just the 4 mb standard that came with the printer. I am wondering if this is a memory issue triggered by Windows 7and I just need to get more memory for the printer. (Computer has 4 gb of memory)
Anybody else have a similar issue and got theirs fixed?
Thanks in advance.

Hi jnickelsen,
I understand the printer won't print multiple copies.
Thank you for your reply.
I will be happy to help you with this.
This printer doesn't have the Mopier settings.
What drivers are you using?
Did you download the drivers or are you using the Windows preinstalled drivers?
If you are using the Windows preinstalled drivers then I would download the latest drivers. Here is the URL for the HP LaserJet Full Feature Software and Driver.
I would download and run the Print and Scan Doctor since it might resolve the issue automatically.

Officejet Pro 8600 will not print multiple copies

When I first set up my HP Officejet Pro 8600 I could print multiple copies. Not sure when, how, or why but I can no longer print more than one copy of any document at a time regardless if it is one page or 100 pages. I tried to update the drivers but the update failed as it said it could not uninstall the printer. When I did the error reporting it said there was no solution.
My OS is Window XP Home
The printer is connected via network.
I print mainly from MS Word 2010 and Adobe PDF files and I have the same issue from either program.
This question was solved.

Since the drivers and software refuses to update automatically, force it to. Uninstall all of the printer software and install it back using a fresh download. That will ensure that you have the latest driver and software for the printer installed and eliminate the need for updates for a while. I'll link them below. If that doesn't fix the problem with multiple documents not printing, try using an alternate driver for the printer. I'll link those instructions below. Let me know what happens.

Printing multiple copies in 1.3 and 1.4

Hi,
I have a problem while trying to print multiple copies of a doc programmatically (without the Print Dialog)with 1.3 and 1.4, but nobody seems to know an answer.
In 1.3 you can set the nr. of copies on the PrinterJob with the setCopies() Method. But this just doesn't work...
pj.setCopies(2);
pJ.print();
prints only one copy!
On the 1.4 you can use the PrintRequestAttributeSet to set the nr of copies, I tried this too, but it also doesn't work, I always receive just one copy (or the nr. of copies set in the Print Dialog...)
PrintRequestAttributeSet attset = new HashPrintRequestAttributeSet();
attset.add(new Copies(2));
pJ.print(aset);
This has to work somehow, nobody seems to miss it and it is part of the API. Is there some other trick that must be taken into account? The Bug List brings a few old errors, but under 1.4 there is no bug listed...
Thanks for helping me!

Thanks a lot for helping me, this just wasn't my problem; but at least I'am meanwhile a little bit wiser:
the problem seems to be the printer: I can try here on 3 different printers (one of them is the ADOBE PDF, where I mostly do the testing).
The Printer 1 returns the SupportedAttributeValues for Copies 1-2000 and prints the 2 Copies wished ( works properly!)
The Printer 2 returns the SupportedAttributeValues for Copies 1-999 but doesn't print more than 1 copy (Any idea ??? )
The Printer 3 ( the ADOBE PDF one ) returns the SupportedAttributeValues for Copies.class 1 and prints allways only one copy, which at the first view seems to be right...(I already have tried to change the MultipleDocumentHandling to SINGLE_DOCUMENT.SINGLE_DOCUMENT_NEW_SHEET but that doesn't help!)
But I don't understand, why all the printers print 2 copies if I do it through the Print Dialog: when I increase the number of copies in the dialog, the specified number of copies is allways printed!!!
It is driving me crazy! I cannot properly implement the requirement to print 2 copies of a document, because there is no information from the printer that this won't do it ( see the printer 2!!!) The information about the printer that the java API returns, seems to be less than the printer really can!!!??? I hope, I am wrong...
So, if you have solved such problems, please let me know how!
Lot of thanks,
Maria

Printing multiple copies per page, not multiple pages per sheet

How can I print multiple copies of page per sheet of paper?
I've got an image or PDF that I'd like to print 4 or more of per sheet of paper. But it can easily fit on one sheet. When I choose to print 4 copies and in the Layout section choose 4 copies per page what I get is for pages printed out with the image scaled down to a quarter of a page.
What I'd like is the one image scaled down and printed 4 times on a single piece of paper.

I don't completely believe that this is completely
due to the drivers from the printer manufacturer.
Nor did I say that it is. The software from which the doc is being printed is
even more important re page layout options.
Your statement of "It is a function of the printer driver..." is what led to that misunderstanding.
I completely agree that the idea of 'print to PDF' is misleading and that I was mislead that all the print dialog options (like the quartz filters that do work in outputting to PDF and the # of copies that do not) should apply to creating PDF files using the print dialogue. It now says 'save to PDF' in 10.4 instead of 'output' or 'print'. I think some of my confusion is carrying over from UI decisions in 10.3.
Obviously it wasn't designed to work this exact way
or it would work this exact way.
I have no idea what this statement means.
It's stating the obvious in reply to your statement of the obvious ("the feature you are trying to use isn't designed to work that way."). If it were designed to work in the manner that I was wanting it perform I would have never posted a question about it.
You can say it's not commonly done and that would
apply to anything other than printing off one full
sized copy of any single page. Using Quartz filters
isn't "commonly done" but it's available.
Not true... mailing labels, multipage spreads, thumbnails, reductions/
enlargements, ad infinitum are far more frequently done than printing
the same content on the same sheet multiple times. As I said, however,
there are provisions for doing so when the need arises.
You missed the point. Functionality is presented that is far less utilized than what I was desiring to do on this platform/set of applications as compared to other platforms/sets of applications. This is why I specifically mentioned the quartz filtering. I have personally met only one other person who uses quartz filtering yet I know over a dozen that want to print in the manner I originally posted about.
I'm sure you have seen such results & I have done
the exact same type of output hundreds of times on
both Windows & Mac platforms as well as others...
but not in the manner you are attempting to get it
done. As you've found out, that just doesn't work.
And I've seen it performed in the manner I was attempting, furthering the frustration.
In any program you typically do specify page layout
before number of copies... in fact, that is the cruxt of the
issue. But getting the same content to repeat on a single
page is not a matter of page layout and is not a function
of the print operation unless you're dealing with commercial
devices.
I guess I've just been spoiled by those big office Xerox machines. I never thought of that functionality being at all special in any way.
Thank you for the assistance.

Laserjet 1020 Won't Print Multiple Copies

I have a Laserjet 1020. OS is Windows 7, 64x. If I give a command to print any document multiple times, it will only print it once. So, if the document is 1 page and I need 5 copies, it will print that one page one time. If the document is 4 pages and I need 5 copies, it will print the four pages of the document, but only once. So, the issue is with multiple *copies*, not multiple *pages*. I have tried the simple stuff (turning the computer on and off; checking for updates; removing the printer and completely reinstalling it; etc.). Nothing works. I did see elsewhere somebody say that if you go to start; devices/printers; right click printer; and hit DEVICE SETTINGS tab, then you can change this "MOPIER" mode thing. But that is the problem... THERE IS NO DEVICE SETTINGS TAB. No, I am not crazy. It isn't there. So, the problem with that fix, which appeared to work for others in the HP Forum, won't work for me because there is NO DEVICE SETTINGS TAB. So... How do I fix this? Why don't I have a device settings tab? Help! :-)

MG7520 Printing Multiple Copies

I'm having this odd issue where my brand new MG7520 is printing multiple copies of a document, despite my only requesting one copy. It doesn't always seemt to do it, printing from Adobe Reader is fine, I get just one copy, but printing a webpage will just result in many copies of the same thing until I cancel the job. Seems very odd, any idea why this might be happening. Appreciate any insight anyone might have.

Essentially the printer is a passive device and it really only does what it is told to do. Probably a wonky network issue, but could also be settings you inadvertantly changed (like how many copies you want printed).
Do you have a USB cable? You can try to install it via USB then print to see whether it's the computer sending weird commands or if it's the network.

I am unable to print multiple copies on 1 page

I have a macbook and I used to be able to print multiple copies on 1 page. It had a selection on the bottom right. Now something has changed with the format. It allows me to select multiple copies, but only prints one.

Hi,
In order to print multiple documents on one page, you may follow the steps mentioned below:-
Press Command+p- Select multiple pages or booklet
If you are not getting these options, please send us a screenshot to better understand the issue.

Printing multiple copies of 3 page BOL in Duplex mode-

Hi Gurus!
I have created a smartform to print the BOL on front side and terms and conditions on back side. I used the duplex mode to print and it works perfectly fine. When I have a BOL with 3 pages of information , it prints the items on the front side and terms and conditions on the second side and it does everything absolutely correctly.
At our organization we always print 5 copies of any BOL and that is when the problem arises. When we do a printing of the BOL form with number of copies set to 5 , it prints very akwardly with the settings. First it prints page 1 front and same thing on the back, then again the first page on the first and its back and then front on the third side , then similarly 5 sides of terms and conditions and then followed by 5 sides of page 2 items and followed by 5 sides of terms and conditions, which is very akward. Actually it should print first set with page 1 and TC on back of it , then Page 2 and TC on its back and page 3 and TC on its side like it does when I make a single copy.
Is there any settings that I am missing thats making the above happen when I print multiple copies of the BOL?
Please suggest.

Hi!
Thanks for the reply. I changed the settings of the printer to 'Pass Copies as Separate Output Request(in SAP System)' and re-tried printing 5 copies of the BOL and it again seems to print the first page 5 sides then Terms and conditions on 5 sides, then again 5 sides of page 2 and followed by 5 sides of T&C.
My settings on the smartforms is front page "D' and the back and the Last page is blank setting. This runs well when I just have to print one copy of my BOL , it prints the front page and then T&C on its back side , then again the second page and T&C on its back . This only messes when its more than one copy of the set of BOL.
Please suggest as to what to do next to make it print in proper sets.
Thanks and Regards

Printing Multiple Copies of Same Image on Multiple Pages

I have Photoshop Elements 11 on a Windows 8 platform. I can NOT get it to print multiple copies of the same file on multiple pages. I need one file printed on one page multiple times. I have tried the CTRL-ALT-SHIFT and nothing changes. It still just prints one and is done.
I use this for label printing, so I need it to print more than one copy at a time. It also is not saving the settings, so everytime I hit print, I have to readjust the print requirements. This just is not going to work when you need to print a few hundred copies at a time.

You can create your own picture package, if none of the options in the PSE print window>Type of Print work for you. Just make a blank file, copy/paste your image and alt drag it to make multiple copies. You can use the move tool to position things as you want them.
Generally speaking, though, for something like label printing, it's simplest to use PSE to create the image, then use your word processing/desktop publishing program to print the actual labels.

How can I print multiple copies of same photo onto one page on iPhoto 9.5.1?

How can I print multiple copies of same photo onto one page on iPhoto 9.5.1? I was able to do it on the old iPhoto, but can't seem to be able to do it on the new iPhoto. Grrr...

Photos does the same thing.... Only workaround I can come up with is to create a template in Pages and copy & paste.

How can I print multiple copies of the same photo onto one sheet of paper? Do I have to Duplicate the photo in iPhoto and then select them all?

How can I print multiple copies of the same photo onto one sheet of paper? Do I have to Duplicate the photo in iPhoto and then select them all?

no - you simply have to select the option to print mucliples of a photo on a page
select the photo and go to the file menu ==> print - select the printer, paper size and print size and click customize - in the tool bar click on the settings icon (the gear looking thingy) and select "multiple of the same photo per page" and the preview will reflect this option showing a full page of the selected size photos

How to print multiple copies on one page ?

How to print multiple copies of one document on one page ?
in coreldraw I used to make the document -for example a business card 5x9 - and when sending to print it automatically placed the number of cards that would fit in my A4 sheet.
how do I make the same operation in Indesign.
thanks

Hi, Peter S.
>I can see that as a shortcut to printing a page of different cards for multiple people, but to do a simple n-up of a single card it seems overly complex to me. What am I missing?
* It's just an alternative to copy/paste and step/repeat.
* For a one-time only use, perhaps it's a little more complex than necessary. But for any future needs, only the content of the data file needs to be changed, either by editing, or by pointing to a new data file. If different cards for multiple people becomes necessary, it's ready to go.

How to print multiple copies of same image (with specific fixed dimensions) on single page

I am using Photoshop Elements 10 on Win 7 PC. I am trying to print multiple copies of one image on a single 8.5x11 sheet of paper? The images are artwork for buttons (to be used in button-making machine) so the dimensions must be exact on the duplicated images. When I select Picture Package, the images are resized to fit the dimensions in the picture package. When I select Contact Sheet, the images are resized to fit the number of columns I selected. Neither is acceptable. How can I repeat the same image on a single piece of paper without having the system re-size the image? I know that I can manually create a new PSE file and manually insert the images into this file. This is what I have been doing as a work-around. But I would hope there is a better/faster way.
Thank-you!

A variation of hatstead's method where the pictures are precisely aligned:
1. Add the picture to the blank file as hatstead described. Use the Move tool to position the picture in the upper left corner.
2. Duplicate the layer. Use the arrow keys (NOT the mouse) to move the new layer to the right.
3. Repeat step 2 until the row is filled:
4. Merge Down the 3 layers into one. Alternatively, link the 3 layers and do a Merge Linked as in this example. The end result is the pictures in the row are on one layer:
5. Duplicate the layer and use the arrow keys to move this down to the 2nd row.
6. Repeat step 5 to create additional rows.
7. Finally, to center the whole thing on the sheet, link all the row layers and position with the arrow keys.
Note that you can also custom-make your own Picture Package. Instructions for this should be somewhere in Help.
