I have checked in now an improvement that textonly.ppd and postscript.ppd will be found without needing an absolute path in ppds.py. So the distro can place these files wherever CUPS finds them.

The correct PPD for the ip3000 gets selected for me now.

What is still not working correctly is the interactive selection in system-config-printer. If I select an unknown or unsupported printer on the fiurst screen on the second screen "Generic" gets correctly chosen, but on the third simply the first entry of the list ("ESC/P Dot Matrix Printer") is chosen and not the text-only printer.
