That results in a saturation of the print queue. LO 3.3 behaved differently.

I'm running LibreOffice (version directly from LibreOffice) 3.4.4 on Ubuntu 11.10. I tried printing 75 copies of a single sheet with significant graphics (large file size) on a black and white Konica-Minolta PagePro 1400w laser printer. I had no idea that LibreOffice would be sending 75 individual print jobs to the printer instead of 1 print job with 75 copies. It crashed the printer, and also the driver after several copies. Then there was the horrendous mess of getting all of the unprinted jobs deleted. I was able to use my inkjet (HP OfficeJet Pro 8000) to finish the printing after the laser crashed. Once again individual print jobs were sent for each copy, but the printer did not crash. Once everything was printed, I had about 10 minutes of icons coming on the screen saying printing started and printing completed when the printing was all done. The icons were playing catchup with all of the print jobs. I've tried to research this. The only way I've found that you can print a large number of copies is to export the page to pdf, and then print the pdf. Programs other than LibreOffice (GEdit, Document Viewer) send 1 job to the printer with multiple copies. This problem did not exist in OpenOffice a year ago with whatever was the current version of openoffice on Ubuntu 10.10 back then when I printed the same job on the same laser printer.

Unchecking 'Collate' and printing results in multiple print jobs as expected. So as to not waste ink, just test by printing to a cups-pdf printer. In 3.4.4 it's as if the 'Collate' feature doesn't exist. 3.4.4 prints multiple print jobs whether the 'Collate' option is checked or not. Ubuntu 10.10 linux: versions are directly from LO.

I realize that most home users might not notice the difference between one multi-copy job and several individual jobs, but in larger environments it is a huge problem. I wonder if this is the same as bug 46904 which seems to be attracting a little more attention: https://www.libreoffice.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=46904 Any advice on how to patch this or work around it without user intervention would be greatly appreciated. Currently it looks like the only solution is to go back to version 3.3.4.1 I just tested this with version 3.3.4.1 and the problem does not occur. Testing with 3.4.0 and 3.5.1 showed the bug. The base system is Ubuntu 10.04 and the problem occurs with .debs grabbed directly from libreoffice. Diffing the source from 3.3.4.1 vs. 3.4.0 shows libreoffice-3.4.0.1/vcl/unx/source/printer/cupsmgr.cxx had a few changes that look relevant, but I'm in way over my head here: bool bUsePDF = false; cups_dest_t* pDest = ((cups_dest_t*)m_pDests); const char* pOpt = m_pCUPSWrapper->cupsGetOption( "printer-info", pDest->num_options, pDest->options ); if( pOpt ) { m_bUseIncludeFeature = true; bUsePDF = true; if( m_aGlobalDefaults.m_nPSLevel == 0 && m_aGlobalDefaults.m_nPDFDevice == 0 ) m_aGlobalDefaults.m_nPDFDevice = 1; } ... if( rJob.m_nPDFDevice > 0 && rJob.m_nCopies > 1 ) { rtl::OString aVal( rtl::OString::valueOf( sal_Int32( rJob.m_nCopies ) ) ); rNumOptions = m_pCUPSWrapper->cupsAddOption( "copies", aVal.getStr(), rNumOptions, (cups_option_t**)rOptions ); } if( ! bBanner ) { rNumOptions = m_pCUPSWrapper->cupsAddOption( "job-sheets", "none", rNumOptions, (cups_option_t**)rOptions ); } } Reply at: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libreoffice/+bug/1025839/comments/7 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ On 2012-03-30T15:17:38+00:00 Björn Michaelsen wrote: This is claimed to be working in 3.3 and broken in 3.4 -> regression Reply at: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libreoffice/+bug/1025839/comments/8 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ On 2012-03-31T04:05:22+00:00 Björn Michaelsen wrote: This seems to be a feature, not a bug.

This makes me think the problem isn't in the printer or in its capacities, but in something libreoffice doesn't handle while evince does.
