How and when to prune Austrian Copper rose

One of my favorites of all time. But I confess, I have never quite understood what category of rose the Austrian Copper is. I've always called it a "rambler" because it seems to grow very large along fences, rambling so to speak.

I've also never quite known the proper time to prune. Or how.

Mine put on a lot of growth this year. It's huge. It will need some taming. It not blooming yet but will bloom soon. I know better than to prune it now.

Does one prune after it blooms or? By the way, I live in Colorado, zone 5 if that makes a difference.

Thanks!
