I have done such a thing for PDF printers in the cups-filters package at 
OpernPrinting. Download the package from

http://www.openprinting.org/download/cups-filters/

and see the "NATIVE PDF PRINTER SUPPORT" in the README file and the files

ppd/Generic-PDF_Printer-PDF.ppd
ppd/HP-Color_LaserJet_CM3530_MFP-PDF.ppd
