- Go to System -> Administration -> Printing
- Doubleclick "New Pinter"
- Notice that there is no mention of a CUPS PDF printer
- Open a terminal and tpe "sudo nautilus" and then your password
- Go to Filesystem -> usr -> lib -> cups -> backend
- Rightclick "cups-pdf" and select Properties
- Go to the Permissions tab and click the "Set user ID" special flag
- Again try to add a new printer
- There is now a "PDF Printer" detected, select it
- Select the Generic, Postscript Color Printer (Rev 3b)
- Give it a name, like PDF Printer
- Right click on the newly created printer, and select Properties
- Click "Print a Test Page"
- The file should be in your Home folder, under the PDF folder
