AFAIK KDE in current Kubuntu uses a printer setup tool based on system-config-printer. This tool should ask CUPS for what drivers or PPDs are available. Cups supplies to the printer setup tool the same information as "lpinfo -m" does on the command line. As CUPS supports gzipped PPD files it lists also the PPDs from the m2300w package:

till@till-laptop:~/ghostscript/gpl/testfiles$ lpinfo -m | grep 2[34]00W
lsb/usr/m2300w/magicolor_2300W-m2300w.ppd.gz Minolta magicolor 2300W Foomatic/m2300w (recommended)
lsb/usr/m2300w/magicolor_2400W-m2400w.ppd.gz Minolta magicolor 2400W Foomatic/m2400w (recommended)
till@till-laptop:~/ghostscript/gpl/testfiles$

If KDE's system-config-printer does not show them it is a bug of KDE's system-config-printer.
