Of course there is.
Simply specify the NBP-Type in NBP-Notation into papd.conf.

NBP Notation:
NBPName:NBPType@Zone

If you want, you may use:
MyPrinter:ImageWriter@Printerzone

Unfortunately, papd uses the colon as field separator, so you'll have to escape this. My example papd.conf:

Tech-HP5M-Spool\:LaserWriter@Verwaltung:\
        :pr=|/usr/bin/lpr -P Tech-HP5M -r -h:\
        :op=poc:\
        :pd=/usr/local/etc/HP-LJ-5M.ppd:

:wq! PoC
