The SCO interface scripts are located in /usr/spool/lp/admins/interfaces. Is this enough of a description? If not let me know and I will try to include additional information.

You find the interface script (in CUPS called backends) in 
/usr/lib/cups/backend. Write your own script, e.g.:

#!/bin/bash
cat - >/tmp/~print
