You need to enable the "file" pseudo-device, which is disabled by
default for security reasons.  See the on-line documentation for
the FileDevice directive in the cupsd.conf file.

Keep in mind, however, that you MUST use a PPD file or interface
script with queues that print to a file pseudo-device because CUPS
just opens the named file for the filter, it doesn't do any copying
of its own.
