I tested wth foxit pdf printer and pdf creator.. I made some changes in the code, as authorizing print to file and etc, but nothing worked.

Printing RAW data to a printer is sending bytes to the printer that the printer understands.

A PDF "printer" may not support this as it may frame anything you send to it in a pre-made PDF document. You'll have to consult with the people who wrote the PDF printer you're using to see if it supports what you want to do.
