AFAIK, this is a known issue at least with MacOS 10.3 and lower (haven't checked with Tiger, though).
The reason is that the number of copies gets configured twice: once in the PS job
("<</NumCopies nn>>setpagedevice") and once in the IPP request by specifying the copies attribute.
Ask Michael Sweet and/or Apple if this somehow (either by an Apple specific hack or in CUPS 1.22)
subject to fixing.
