When $S$ is pair-wise nonorthogonal, it is known that one can generate the copy from $\hatρ_i$ alone, with no interaction with the original system. Here we show that a set containing orthogonal pairs exhibits a property forming a striking contrast; For any such set, there is a choice of $\hatρ_i$ that enables cloning only when the two systems are interacted in a purely quantum manner that is not achievable via classical communication.4 pages, 1 figureQuantum Physicstext
