Such a PDF printer makes only sense one the local machine, where the printer queue is defined, therefore CUPS should be advised to no broadcast it into the network. This is done by adding "-o printer-is-shared=no" to the "lpadmin" command:

lpadmin -p PDF -E -v cups-pdf:/ -m foomatic:Generic-PostScript_Printer-Postscript.ppd -o PageSize=<A4 or Letter depending on locale> -o printer-is-shared=no
