Printing from OPENVPMS - number of copies doesnt do anything
Under OpenVPMS 2.4-beta selecting the number of copies doesnt seem to do much
It doesnt print multiple copies just 1.
The system is setup using a docker instance running under Ubuntu 18.
The docker instance of tomcat acts a client to the System which has a CUPS print server running that manages printing
We have confirmed that printing from the commandline using
LP -n 2 <doc>
Works in both the host and the docker instance and produces 2 copies.
At this stage with think the javax print implementation may be flawed.
JAVA version is Temurin 11.0.17
cups-client 2.3.1-9ubuntu1.2
Cups does report some issues with printing copies and has a recommendations to add
*cupsManualCopies True to the printers ppd file - this should force cups to send multiple print jobs v 1 with multiple copies
We did try this but give we could already print multiple copies it seemed a flawed work around
