If the application can determine the number of prints it will probably override the driver setting. Perhaps the program that put out the delivery notes can accomplish this?

but the clients overrides number of copies,

you cant fix stupid.
client behavior is not your problem.

Why doesn't the customer ask for 6 to get out 6, instead of asking 3 to get out 6?

Here is what you do to fix stupid... You fix it with more stupid.
Create a printer driver instance for every option up to 6 to print 12 and just set the default setting of "<pintername> one invoice" to 2 copies "<pritername> two invoices" 4 copies and so on and make them select the right printer from the list.
The make them so dependent on your machine and ways my making one print on yellow and the other on blue just to sell the stupidity.

If they always need 2 copies of everything printed:

In copier:
Utility --> User Settings --> Printer Settings --> Basic Settings --> Number of Copies --> 2.

This is probably IT guy asking here so... but like femaster's answer
In the end of the day I think Synthohol nails it with the hammer!

Yes seems the only answer, but they use the printer for other things.

Are you forced to use the V4 driver?
In the V3 drivers there is a setting called "carbon copy" that might solve your problem.

Yes that was the problem, had to use V4 driver on print manager reinstalled the printer on RDS server and shared it with regular driver works fine now, its the V4 driver that blocks the settings several copies.

I can't say that I am the most knowledgeable person when it comes to the print drivers, but does the V4 driver not have the Carbon Copy option? I only ask as the V5 driver we are using with our in-house C654e machine still lists the Carbon Copy option under the "Cover Mode" tab in the print driver. I've never used that function, so I can't offer any advice about it.

I did not see Cover mode, there are several settings missing in V4 driver. I was able to turn off the duplex but number of copies did not carry to the client.

What about the V3 driver as suggested by B0265 - sounded lika a good hint to me...It wouldn't be the first feature that got lost with a new driver generation.
