- On your Windows 10, build 1709 system open a PDF with Adobe reader (DC-18.011.20035).
- Click file | Print and select a print queue using PostScript GPD 5.585.13.0 that is pointed at a Xerox WorkCentre 78xx hosting firmware level 073.xxx.247.32400.
- Select the amount of copies you wish to print.
- Under the Adobe “Advanced” button within the print dialogue, select “print to file”
- Save the print ready file with a .prn extension.
- Open the print ready file with wordpad.
- Search the file for the word “copies”.
- In my attempts to replicate your statements I selected 4 copies as shown below;
- If the correct value is displayed within the print ticket and the printer does not output 4 copies, you are dealing with a printer issue.
- If no copy command is present at all in the print ticket, you are dealing with an Operating System issue or Driver bug. (Requires Discovery Escalation)
- If an incorrect copy integer is specified within the print ticket, the application must be investigated in regards to how it is interacting with our driver. (Requires Discovery Escalation)
***Note*** I am unable to replicate this behavior using the information you provided, therefore this appears to be a break and fix issue.
Things to try;
- Determine where the source of the problem is by following my troubleshooting steps above in regards to the .ps file.
- If the problem is with the printer, an altboot using the disable data backup file and installing firmware version 073.xxx.247.32400 will resolve the issue.
- If you deem the problem to be an Operating System problem or driver bug, ensure all Microsoft updates have been executed. If this does not resolve the issue provide a configuration report, driver version, OS build, print ready file, and troubleshooting steps executed in attempts to resolve. Escalate to Discovery.
- If you deem the problem to be an Application problem or driver bug, ensure all Microsoft and application updates have been executed and provide a configuration report, driver version, OS build, print ready file, and troubleshooting steps executed in attempts to resolve. Escalate to Discovery.
In all cases where you see Discovery it means Xerox 2nd level support needs to be engaged officially (Call Xerox)
