Re: Printing each page multiple times

Based on this additional info, you could use the CPYSPLF command and convert the document to a single PDF and then print via our iForms PDF print command with 5 copies and collating or manually print via Adobe Acrobat with 5 copies and collating.

I don't know of any native output queue or print file values would help.

subject: Re: Printing each page multiple times

These forms are invoices that are received pre-printed in 5 parts
(different colors) in continuous forms for a pin-fed printer. The old
program (with internal definitions) just fills in the blanks.

Using arrays, I previously replaced two other forms (single part) for laser
printing. Since the invoices do not require special handling, the client
wishes to know if there is a simple parameter (e.g. JCL in System z) that
can be utilized to print multiple copies of each page vs. spending dollars
for a rewrite. Is such a parameter for IBM i being considered?

I will consider the CPYSPLF possibility. If a rewrite has to be done, I
will ask the client again if they can live with the suggestion to print the
owner (e.g. Customer) of each copy on each page vs. a different color.
