I am not sure if i understand you correctly (the same doubt as with frank_rizzo applies). As i understnad it you want to print a document but save the spooled lp-output too.
If so: the "backend" of a print queue is a simple shell script called "rembak". Search in your printer definition file (/etc/qconfig) and you will see it mentioned. his "rembak" can be changed or either replaced completely by a script provided by yourself, as long as it reacts to the same commands/signals as the original ones.
I'd think that this is the best place to start investigating, maybe you can "hook" into this script and save the output you want in the moment prior to it being printed.
I hope this helps.
