Cristian, there's still something to check: as the reporter said, the lpoptions utility returns a set of driver option, which are actually taken from the PPD file of the first printer of the class. However, I'm not sure that kdeprint even asks CUPS for a PPD file in the case of a class, I think it's only in the case of a real printer...

Indeed, in kdelibs/kdeprint/cups/kmcupsmanager.cpp: loadPrinteDriver(), you see that the driver is not requested for a class. IMO, this is something that can be done as in plain CUPS.

Michael.
