CUPS 1.2.12 -- PCL no longer create multiple copies

Hello all.

We've just upgraded our CUPS systems from 1.2.4 to 1.2.12. Our users
are now reporting they are no longer getting multiple copies.

Looks like some PCL codes have changed in 1.2.12. See the following
for example:

banner angel >/tmp/angel
lpr -T50433-1:1:foo: -Pricohc -#3 /tmp/angel

>From the above command(no PCL here), I would get 3 copies as exepected.


However, printing any job with PCL will result with only one
copy:

lpr -T50433-1:1:foo: -Pricohc -#3 /tmp/SP001nq5lx.ADU

Where /tmp/SP001nq5lx.ADU:
^[%-12345X at PJL
@PJL ENTER LANGUAGE=PCL
^[E^[&l0L^[&l1X^[&k0G^[*c32000G^[*c16M-^HD"^Q^Q"DM-^H^[*c32001G^[*c16M-....

I'm able to duplicate the PCL issue in multiple printers.

PCL in CUPS 1.2.4 worked okay. Any help on how to resolve this
appreciated.

Thanks,
Angel
