I seem to be having a problem whereby only one copy of a document will print
irrelevant of how many are set in the printing properties. We need to print
500 copies, one at a time will take a while. I have tried recreating the
document and saving it under another name. I have tried using a different
computer on the network. . . all locations and versions of the file give me
the same result, only one copy will print. ANy ideas would be greatly
appreciated.

Ok i have tried all suggestions in the article and corresponding articles
linked. None of them seem to work. A little more detail on the printer may be
of help - it is an HP Laserjet 4200 using the PCL6 DRivers version 60.3.14.2

Strangely enough extending the document to 2 pages does enable me to print
multiple copies and although it gets round the problem it is not ideal as
some poor so and so has to sit and pull all the blank pages out of the batch
of 500 printed. Any further suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Did you try to get an updated printer driver?

If your 4200 has a duplexing unit, set it for double-sided printing - that
will solve the blank page problem.
