3.4.7Printing several copies of a document

There are two possible ways of printing several copies of a document. Firstly, you can print the entire document, and secondly you can print each page of the document several times. The difference is that in the first case the copies of the document are sorted while in the second case they are not. The second option, however, might be faster if the printer itself can print several copies of individual pages (e.g. HP-LASERJET printers).

You can define the number of copies for the entire document using the following option:

-fcnumber

number defines the number of copies of the specified documents to be printed. If this option is not specified, exactly one copy of each document is printed.

If you have access to a printer supporting multiple printouts (e.g. an HP- LASERJET printer), you can use the following option to print several copies of each individual page:

-fpnumber

In this case, number defines how often each page of the job is to be printed.

This option is not supported by PostScript printers.

Examples

To print three copies of a document: xpadd -dr file1 -fc 3

To print five copies of pages 1 through 5 of a document one after the other: xpadd -dr file1 -ps 1-5 -fp 5
