How to change the Printer Model in Device Options within the Printer Properties via Registry

I am trying to change the printer model displayed in the Device Options section of the Printer Properties for various drivers. I’ve already tried PowerShell modules such as PrinterConfiguration , PrinterProperties but that field is not showing up there. I also tried monitoring registry changes on saving using Procmon to track what gets updated but modifying the DriverName in the following sections hasn't had any effect: Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Print\Printers\MyPrinter\PrinterDriverData Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control
