When print jobs are sent to this virtual printer, the jobs should be forwarded to another CUPS printer but altered, so that the first page comes out of tray 1, and the rest of the document comes out of tray 2.

lpadmin -p printername -o AP_FIRSTPAGE_InputSlot-default=foo
where "foo" is a valid InputSlot option:
lpoptions -p printername -l | grep InputSlot
