Lethead & Plain Printing Options

We have a department that needs to print 6 copies of each letter in Crystal Reports. The first copy needs to be on Letterhead and the remaining 5 on Plain. This means different paper trays on the printer.

Their current letters use 6 Detail sections to achieve the 6 copies and they input the paper manually to achieve correct paper.

Is there a way of setting this up to print automatically to different trays within the same report and can you specify number of copies?
 
Did you get an answer to this question? This is an issue for me to.

Unfortunately I discovered that this is not possible within Crystal 7.0 - there is a "loop" facility in Crystal 8.0 that could be useful but I don't have access to this.

Our solution was to reuse the original "fix" of creating duplicate detail sections and using suppression formulas to achieve the correct number of copies for each scenario.
