I installed Wordperfect 9 on Windows 7 64 bit and got almost everything working.  The one problem is that it will not print more than one copy of a document.  It will print multiple pages of the same document and I can enter numbers above 1 in the printer dialog box for number of copies, but it will not print them.

I have reinstalled different drivers and end up back with the Win7 default for my printer, which otherwise works fine.

I have tried different compatibility settings for wordperfect 9 in windows 7, settling on xp service pack 2, which is the environment it was in on my old computer and in which it worked fine.

Any ideas out there?

I am responding to myself here for the benefit of anyone who finds this.  As it turned out, the problem was with my HP printer, an older model.  On an HP forum, someone suggested disabling (or enabling) the "mopier" function in the printer driver device settings, and that worked for wordperfect and other programs as well.
