Thank you very much. This is pretty good information for me.
It looks like the virtual printer output print data into the dump file.
From CUPS view, the only difference between real printer is backend:-)

Hello Henry,
you can create/connect a "virtual" printer that outputs everything that normally gets sent to the printer to a raw file.
When you open Printer Setup Utility, just option-click the Add button. From the pull-down menu, choose the last entry (More options). There you can select the connection method, device name, device uri and the desired model (for the ppd). The trick is to enter something like file://Users/your_username/Desktop/printer.dump for the device uri.
If you print you should find the printer's instructions in that text file on your desktop.
Hope that helps, regards Michael
