[STR New]

Currently when there is a PDF job coming in, and the only filters for the
job are pdftopdf and a backend filter (ipp or socket), there is no good way
to create hardware copies on a printer that doesn't support specifying
number of copies over IPP. 

There is a suggestion to modify ppdEmitJCL() function to add "PJL
SET COPIES=X" with the number of copies taken from the command line into
the job, so that the job header would become something like:

%-12345X at PJL
@PJL SET DUPLEX=ON
@PJL SET BINDING=LONGEDGE
@PJL SET RENDERMODE=COLOR
@PJL SET COPIES=15
@PJL ENTER LANGUAGE = PDF
%PDF-1.3
