For Mac OS X 10.4.x, nothing like this will work as there is no
infrastructure for it.

For Mac OS X 10.5 and beyond (i.e. CUPS 1.2 and beyond), vendors can
supply "driver interface" programs which provide virtual PPD files,
either generated locally or downloaded via the Internet.

In addition, CUPS 1.2 supports PPD files with multiple language
localizations.
