Set the Copies

The PLOSSYS 5 attribute copies specifies how often a document will be output. The number can be set in several ways when assigning the job. The evaluation also differs depending on which format is sent to the checkin service.

Hint - 0 or 1

The attributes differ in how they specify the number of copies. With PLS_PLOTCOPY and SAP_OMS_S_COPIES, 0 means that the document is output once. With copies, 1 means that the document is output once.

IPP

In case of IPP, the copies attribute is determined from the IPP header only. The following IPP attributes are taken into account:

  • PLS_PLOTCOPY from seal-attributes, highest priority
  • SAP_OMS_S_COPIES from seal-attributes
  • copies from job-attributes-tag, lowest priority, (Standard IPP)

A PLS_PLOTCOPY comment in a PostScript file is ignored.

LPR

Copies are only supported for PostScript files containing a PLS_PLOTCOPY comment.
