For those who like everything in once place, following method worked
great for me on Dapper - Thanks for the tips!
In a terminal:
sudo apt-get install cups-pdf
(You can use synaptic to install cups-pdf too if you like)
sudo chmod +s /usr/lib/cups/backend/cups-pdf
In Gnome:
System > Administration > Printing
New Printer
Local Printer & Use A Detected Printer click on PDF Printer
Choose "Generic" as the manufacturer
Choose "postscript color printer rev3b"
Leave the driver set to "Standard (suggested)"
Too bad you can't choose a name & location for it to save too, but
at least it's in a sensible location (~/PDF)
Hope this helps
