which can be downloaded from https://dlc.kyoceradocumentsolutions.eu/index/service/dlc.false.driver.ECOSYSP5021CDW._.EN.html (at the very bottom):

Would be nice if these could by shipped out of the box by OpenPrinting.
There are PPDs for EU/Global version (which apparently do really differ) as well as for different languages for each of the models.
Cheers,
Chris.
