Hi,

i wanted to generate pdf files for each printed document,
ie print a job to 2 printers, one being virtual pdf printer.

ive done that with, adding 2 printers to cups,
one being "printer" other being "pdf" .
then created a samba printer with
print command = lp -d printer %s && lp -d pdf %s

then, ive added that samba printer to cups. (yeah not nice, but the only way i could find to print multiple printers)

with that setup, printouts works like usual, however, the pdf generates empty files.

all printers set as RAW (for cups-pdf ,ive both tried RAW and CUPS-PDF driver)

Any help on any stage (not only for empty pdf files, but also for the multi-printer setup) 'ld be appraciated.
