Can't Change Default Number of Print Copies
Using Word 2003 on Windows 2000, I am unable make a permanent change in the
default number of print copies for a document. When I go to print, the default number of copies comes up as 4. I can change it to 1 using the up/down arrows, but the change does not persist. The next time I go to print a document, unless I remember to change the default number of copies, I will get 4, in the vast majority of cases, 3 more than I want. My wife had this problem on her machine some time ago. The only solution we found was to delete and reinstall the printer object. Surely there's a better way. |

Check the printer Properties and make sure that multiple copies are not set

Can't Change Default Number of Print Copies
The default number of copies reported by the printer driver dialog
(StartSettingsPrinters[driver]Properties is 1, which is not surprising because if I print from Excel, or from an non-Office program, the default number of copies comes up as 1. It's only in Word that it comes up as 4. This problem is clearly specific to Word. "Suzanne S.
