usb.c has the following description: `direct usb:/make/model?serial=foo "Make Model" "USB Printer"` That's why first should go raw Make and Model, and then the user-visible description with (captusb). Otherwise it could not be used for PPD model matching.
It seems that CUPS web interface uses only NickName as "make and model" to match the preferred PPD file, that's why it's crucial to have it exactly as the USB make and model (partial match from the start is suppored).
