Which printer setu tool are you using? Are you using foomatic-gui? Note that this program is no maintained any more and does not come from OpenPrinting. It is based on the printer/driver relationship information being provided in XML format. As this is very space-consuming and slow, I have deprecated this format for end users and demoted it to be only a VCS-friendly source format. End users get the information now as highly compressed PPD files in /usr/lib/cups/driver/foomatic-db-compressed-ppds. This takes much less space and is compatible with all CUPS-conforming printer setup tools, but not with the deprecated, not standard-conforming foomatic-gui.
So if you are using foomatic-gui, uninstall it and use system-config-printer, gnome-control-center, or http://localhost:631/ instead. All these tools show you the available drivers.
