 Printing multiple copies of a PS file.

How can a large postscript file be altered to print multiples copies of itself
so that it does not have to be sent to the print a number of times.

I want to know this because an application generates a large Postscript file
of fine detail that does not photocopy well and we have a serial link to the
printer so sending the file a number of times seems really wasteful.

Thanks,

Henry Bruce.

I've had success by using the following statement:

/#copies x def

where x is the number of copies.

I put this at the begining of the file, right after the standard header.

Give it a try.
