The original job files are in /var/spool/cups (all of the "d" files)
if you have PreserveJobFiles set to "yes".
As for accessing the files, short of running as root (so you can read
the files directly), there is no way to do it in CUPS 1.3. CUPS 1.4
adds a CUPS-Get-Document operation that can be used to retrieve the
job files as long as you are an admin or the owner of the job.
