ALL-IN-1 3.0 When printing, you can specify the Number of Copies to print on form WPPARG. In theory, you should be able to limit the number of copies a user can enter by modifying form SMPRINTERTYPES via SM MFP MPR PT Edit. I believe you should change the Additional Printer Options Field to 'A' and on the Next Screen you should set Copies: Changeable: to 'Y' and change the Maximum Value to whatever restriction you require. This updates the field PT_COPIES_MAXIMUM but it does not seem to have any effect on what the user can enter in the Number of Copies field on form WPPARG. As far as I can tell there is no checking against PT_COPIES_MAXIMUM so the number of copies cannot be restricted. Am I missing something ? Thanks Clive

You have found a bug. The field processing on the WPPARG form should have been checking against the maximum for the print style. Checks against the print style Copies changeable field are performed correctly so you can stop the user changing the field but you cannot set a maximum value. The Copies information is not affected by the Additional Printer Options field because it is an option which is available for all type of printers. Richard | |||||
