Dwanthny's links have my comments on this subject, but to be clear, once the file is in Calibre, there is no longer any access to the original filename. You have to grab the filename at the original import stage using either the method I described in the first link, or by adding code to do it.

I'm assuming that "the file name associated with each ebook" is the original filename, not the filename that Calibre has assigned. If you want the latter, you can construct it from the metadata.
