As far as number of copies is concerned, this sounds more like a non-GUI feature. Well, of course it will need a GUI element but adding a single spinbutton shouldn't be a problem. That's basically a spooler feature that should be passed through to the GUI. BTW, if someone rewrites the print plug-in GUI, please consider not to use (lengthy) tooltips on each and every widget. This was probably done to improve useability but IMO it makes the plug-in user interface a nightmare to work with (or makes you disable tooltips). That's exactly why I did it.
