Printing Multiple Copies From XP

When I print a multiple-page document the print job shows the correct number
of pages. However, when I try printing multiple copies of the same document,
the print job lists the number of pages as if it were printing only 1 copy,
though the printer actually prints the correct number of pages.

(When I say "print job", it's the print process listed when one clicks the
icon in the system tray.)

e.g. When I print 3 copies of a 2-page document, it's supposed to show 6
pages total, but instead the print job lists it as only 2, though it prints 6
pages.

The reason this is important to me is that I have a program that manages
print jobs and it doesn't "see" the number of copies.

Is there a setting in the printer that I should tweak? This problem always
happens whether I use XP Pro or XP Home, and whether I use Lexmark E210 or HP
LaserJet 1012 or 1020.

There is no any standart tweak. For correct number of copies use other apps.
For example O&K Print Watch - http://www.prnwatch.com . It counts correctly
the number of printed pages and copies.

Best,
