Hi Ed,  Thanks for this, I'll look into that as my next option.

I'm currently looking at 

http://aplawrence.com/MacOSX/macosxcupstofile.html

I've only just started work on this but so far I've got the following.  I'll 
let you know how I get on.

lpadmin -p tofile -E -v socket://localhost:12000 -m raw

and 

#!/usr/bin/perl

use strict;
use warnings;
use Getopt::Long;


use IO::Socket::INET;
my $myport=12000;
my $pname='default';
my $dirname='/var/spool/cups-pdf/inet';
my $debug=1;

if (!GetOptions('p|port=i'=>\$myport,'d|
dir=s'=>\$dirname,'printer=s'=>\$pname,'D|Debug'=>\$debug)) {
 die "$0 invalid usage";
}
if (! -e $dirname) {
  mkdir($dirname) || die "Cannot create spool directory: $!\n";
}
if (! -d $dirname) {
  die "Spool directory is not a directory";
}
open (J,">$dirname/$$") ||die "Cannot create files in the spool directory: $!
\n";
close(J);
unlink("$dirname/$$");


my $pserve=IO::Socket::INET->new(LocalPort => 
$myport,Type=>SOCK_STREAM,Reuse=>1,Listen=>1) or die "can't do that $!\n";
while (my $pjob=$pserve->accept()) {
  my ($sec,$min,$hour,$mday,$mon,$year,$wday,$yday,$isdst) = localtime;
  $year+=1900;$mon++;
  my $ts=sprintf('%04d-%02d-%02d_%02d:%02d:%02d',$year,$mon,$mday,$hour,$min,
$sec);
  my $fname="$dirname/$ts_$pname.ps";
  open(J,">$fname") or print "having issues $!\n";
  while (<$pjob>) {
    print J "$_";
  }
  close J;
  close $pjob;
  if (-e "/usr/local/bin/perlCupsFilter_$pname") {
    system("/usr/local/bin/perlCupsFilter_$pname") || warn "Unable to start 
filter: $!\n";
  } else {
    system("/usr/local/bin/perlCupsFilter $pname") || warn "Unable to start 
filter: $!\n";
  }
}
