When printing from stdin, the backend does not need to produce copies.
When printing from the command-line, the backend must produce the
copies.
In your case, pstoraster is supposed to generate the copies for you.
If this is not the case, then you've run into a Ghostscript bug and
need to report it to the folks on ghostscript.com...
