Are you only printing for 1 invoice at a time? All I see is a nightmare in keeping the differences between the different copies on the same invoice data.

Switching the reports under the data for 3, 4, or 5 colors sounds like a bad idea. Why not load 4 printers with different colored stock? Then do a human coloation ? It may not be a bad idea depending on where the coppies are going to ?
