[STR New]

printserver using cups has a queue, shared on the network 
the printer is a network printer, installed with ppd from cups website (hp
laserjet 4350)

when selecting "show printers shared by other systems" (so clientside no
driver)
and printing a document selecting e.g. 3 copies
the number of copies is encoded in the job AND passed to cups (argv[4])

so the printer actually prints 3 jobs containing 3 copies (thus 9 copies
of the original document)
