Print multiple copies page by page using lp command
Hi
I have a pdf file that is being generated using the rwrun command in the shell script.
I then have the lp command in the shell script to print the same pdf file.
Suppose there are 4 pages in the pdf file , I need to print 2 copies of the first page, 2 copies of the second page , then 2 copies of third page and 2 copies of the fourth page in this order.
So it has to print the pdf file page by page.
Can you please help me with this issue ?

I looked around the forum here and found some answers to getting the banner page disabled but when I print a test page they aren't working.
The printer I'm printing to is a HPLaserJet 2300. I couldn't find no banner settings in it either.
I'm using Sco OS 5.05.
Please advise.
