May 21, 2018 at 20:03 comment added Cypress Frankenfeld Thanks @ghostly_s! You should add the version number stuff to your answer. So useful!
May 11, 2018 at 23:43 comment added ghostly_s @CypressFrankenfeld I've seen some vendors include the version number in the make-and-model string that's returned by lpinfo -m (Xerox, for example), but it's certainly not standard. But the PPD file is just plaintext, except when it's compressed and you need to expand it. If you open one in your favorite text editor you should find a *FileVersion line with what you seek.

Apr 26, 2018 at 21:35 comment added Cypress Frankenfeld This is a good answer to list all the printer drivers. How would one find the version number for said drivers? Is there a standard for this? It'd useful when trying to identify if a specific version is already installed or not.
