That's strange. Do you have any PDF printers set up? A PDF printer captures the output from Firefox and offers to save it as a PDF. It would be interesting to test whether you get 4 copies in the PDF, or 4 PDFs, or whether this issue is unique to your "real" printer.

If you do not have a PDF printer, you can install PDFCreator, a free open source program.

Then when you print, change from your real printer to the PDFCreator printer.

I think it's a Mozilla problem. When I used Mozilla as my browser and printed out your message from my e-mail, I got 4 copies. When I used internet explorer and printed out your message I got one copy. I also have not been having this problem when printing off line...just on line.

You got four copies in the PDF, or with the same printer you tested with before?

Obviously there is some misunderstanding between Firefox and your regular printer. The question is why. If the print dialog shows that Firefox is going to request 1 copy but the printer prints 4 copies, that's very strange and I wanted to see whether it occurs with another printer or is specific to your regular printer.
