We are using V3 printer driver architecture to do some custom printing and the following method does not honor the collate setting when printed to HP LaserJet 400 M401 PCL 6 printer driver.

XpsPrint.lib::StartXpsPrintJob 

The collate option works fine when printed directly.

The collate property is set in print ticket, which is part of the xps document stream as follows:

-------------------------

<psf:ParameterInit name="psk:JobCopiesAllDocuments">
<psf:Value xsi:type="xsd:integer">3</psf:Value>
</psf:ParameterInit>

<psf:Feature name="psk:DocumentCollate">
<psf:Option name="psk:Collated"/>
</psf:Feature>

-----------------------------

Can you please suggest a resolution for this?

Note: We are using the  "PTConvertDevModeToPrintTicket" to convert DEVMODE to Print Ticket.
