You have to use the printer name. In the case of printing to PDF, use
"Print To File (PDF)" (this doesn't take into account localization,
so this is a bug). When invoking "autoConfigure" with a printer that
requires an output file, a file dialog will automatically pop up to
ask the user for a filename.
