[STR New]

If a file has N pages and I print it with lpr -# C <filename>, I get N*C*C
pages instead of the expected N*C.

And, printing from a Mac via the local CUPS-Server (1.3.11) to the central
CUPS-Server (1.4.2) works fine.

I don't know what exactly "lpr" does, but I suppose it create a PS-Files
depending on the given options and send this one to the Server. It it
possible that the generated PS-File contains now C*N pages and the CUPS
Server prints this C times... resulting in N*C*C pages? This would be of
course a bug.

Thank you for you help!!

Kind Regards,
Michele
