I prefer Mike's version as well. I will use it as-is, and re-post an updated LCRC, unless there are any objections by end-of-day Tuesday, January 17, 2017.

It is used when the Client generates the copies in the Document content because the Printer does not support the "copies" attribute [RFC2911] for the given Document format.

See the sections on the "multiple-document-handling" Job Template attribute [RFC2911] for more information on using this attribute with multiple Document Jobs.

Figure 4 shows a graphical representation of this example.

If the Printer supports the "copies" Job Template attribute for a given document format, the Printer SHOULD NOT support the "job-pages-per-set" attribute for that same document format. If both are supported for a given document format, when "job-pages-per-set" is specified, "copies" MUST be 1 or omitted since the purpose of the attribute is to specify that the document data contains copies generated by the Client. Specifying "job-pages-per-set" implicitly overrides any "copies" / "copies-default" value to 1. The value of "job-pages-per-set" MUST be evenly divisible with the number of Input Pages since it is being used to demarcate the length of a single copy. See the sections on the "multiple-document-handling" Job Template attribute [RFC2911] for more information on using this attribute with multiple Document Jobs.
