Our accounting department maintains an Excel file, updated in an onging
process, converted to a PDF at month close, and distributed to our senior
management.
There are nine worksheets, seven behave normally, but two worksheets default
to printing 2 copies.
No macros, viruses, etc.
Any suggestions on a fix will be appreciated.

I would try a different PDF converter. There are a # of free ones out there.
It would be a simple and quick test to see if that was the problem.

I am farily certain it is not the PDF converter.
When you select Print from the file menu, and select your printer, several
of the sheets default to 2 copies and others to 1 copy.
This applies to not only the PDF driver, but also to HP and Ricoh printers.
