As the pdftops filter (tested on Linux) properly processes the %%PDFTOPDF… comments, it seems obvious to change the printer’s filter chan to PostScript by the PPD statement: *cupsFilter: „application/vnd.cups-postscript 0 -„ to end up with a PostScript stream. BUT, there still is an issue: as the pdftopdf filter issues the comment %%PDFTOPDFCollate : false the pdftops filter generates a PostScript stream that produces uncollated copies. to solve that, the printer’s PPD need to have a statement *DefaultCollate: true (probably within a finishings block).
