I've rented cars in Spain a few times now and have only ever had to produce my passport and my paper driving licence.  (I don't have a plastic licence yet having never needed to replace my original one).  However, I have read that if you have a plastic licence and you want to hire a car in Spain you need your plastic licence and your paper copy as well, so best check up on this before you go.
