Sure.

    http://hank.org/HP_LaserJet_4ML.ppd

    $ ls -l /etc/cups/ppd | grep 4ML
    lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root    19 2005-04-05 10:48 4ML.ppd -> HP_LaserJet_4ML.ppd
    -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 13961 2005-02-17 17:00 HP_LaserJet_4ML.ppd

I need to review the Cups does again as I'm realizing I don't
remember how all the parts connect.  What maps the ppd to the printer?

Here's printers.conf:

<DefaultPrinter 4ML>
    Info HP LaserJet 4ML
