You can specify a single RequestRoot for all spool files, but not different directories for each printer.

In this program when a user prints something it create the print job spooler file to a directory for that printer. The program also has the ability to copy print job files for a specific printer by going into the printers spooler folder and copying the files. Can this be done in CUPS? Right now all print spooler files go to /var/spool/cups. I would like, when a user prints to a specific printer the spooler file would go to it directory; example
>>> /var/spool/cups/MN_HP_2055_IT
