The MPELX39 patch has variants for 5.5, 6.0, and 6.5 and addresses exactly
that problem. I was a beta site for it, and saw those issues frequently on a
variety of printers. Usually it has to do with a status message from a
secondary tray or something non-critical that confused the spooler, causing
it to assume the file never printed - and printing it over again. Contact
HPRC and get the patch.

Subject: Re: [HP3000-L] Network Printing
I wonder if this is the same problem I am getting... we will
have hundreds of copies of 1 report spit out of a network printer when the
spooler only states 1 copy. We have looked at file statements and programs
to find the cause but to no avail. It happens at different plants at
different times of the day and not every day. I usually have to do a
combination of stopspool and abortio to get the printer to stop then delete
the spool file. We are running 5.5 P7. I don't think a patch on 5.5
addresses this issue. Is this a known problem for HP?

There is a newer patch at least for 6.0 that sounds like it
addresses the
problem, it's MPELX39B. I haven't tried it yet so I'm not
sure how well it
will work. I tend to see this problem on our LPQ1500 then
the laser
printers.
