    Using Epson WF-7520 printer with Windows 10 Pro, Parallels 14 on MacBook Pro 15" late 2016. When specify printing multiple copies I only get one using Windows Word 2016 version 1809 Buildl 10823.20000 (64-bit Office Insider)/Office 365. Can print multiple copies using Mac Word 2016 no problem. This feature used to work in Parallels 13, but stopped working after I upgraded.

    Is this a bug, or a configuration error on my part?

    I have the same problem with HP printer, I guess it's a general print driver issue

    Hi @byundt, please start the Windows virtual machine and go to the top menu bar, click on Actions--> Configure--> Hardware--> Share Printer--> please enable the " Show page setup before printing " and check if it helps.

    Hi @xiadan, to isolate the issue, please try to give a test print from Notepad on your Windows and check if the same issue happens and keep us posted.

    Though it's now 2023, five years later, this problem still persists. However, your workaround does work, and I can not get multiple copies to work. However, you'd think the basic underlying issue would have been fixed in five years. Thanks very much for the workaround. --- Carl

    Typo in above, which I can't seem to edit. It should read "However, your workaround does work, and I can NOW (not not) get multiple copies to work. --- CJD
