I have the same problem. I'm running LibreOffice (version directly from
LibreOffice) 3.4.4 on Ubuntu 11.10. I tried printing 75 copies of a single
sheet with significant graphics (large file size) on a black and white
Konica-Minolta PagePro 1400w laser printer. I had no idea that LibreOffice
would be sending 75 individual print jobs to the printer instead of 1 print job
with 75 copies. It crashed the printer, and also the driver after several
copies. Then there was the horrendous mess of getting all of the unprinted jobs
deleted.  I was able to use my inkjet (HP OfficeJet Pro 8000) to finish the
printing after the laser crashed. Once again individual print jobs were sent
for each copy, but the printer did not crash. Once everything was printed, I
had about 10 minutes of icons coming on the screen saying printing started and
printing completed when the printing was all done. The icons were playing
catchup with all of the print jobs. I've tried to research this. The only way
I've found that you can print a large number of copies is to export the page to
pdf, and then print the pdf. Programs other than LibreOffice (GEdit, Document
Viewer) send 1 job to the printer with multiple copies. This problem did not
exist in OpenOffice a year ago with whatever was the current version of
openoffice on Ubuntu 10.10 back then when I printed the same job on the same
laser printer.
