Usage guidelines

• Only one copy prints when you print on VTAM-controlled printers (IP PrintWay™ basic mode only) or on Internet Printing Protocol (IPP) printers that do not support the copies IPP job attribute. This attribute is supported for VTAM-controlled printers when you use IP PrintWay extended mode.
• Only one copy of the file is sent to an email destination.
• The administrator can limit the number of copies that you can specify. Before accepting a job, Infoprint Server verifies that the printer can support the value of this attribute.
• The value you specify for this attribute overrides any value in the form definition that is used to print the job.
• This attribute is similar to the COPIES parameter of the OUTPUT and DD JCL statements.
