Printing multiple copies

To print multiple copies of a file use the n option. For example:

   lp -n3 memo.txt

This prints three copies of the file memo.txt on your default printer.

You can also print multiple copies of several files. For example:

   lp -dps1 -n3 survey.doc letter.txt

This prints three copies of the files survey.doc and letter.txt on the printer ps1.
