If it is the KCC created book, from memory, for Kobo devices, KCC is creating kepubs. And you would be adding them to the device with the double extension ".kepub.epub". If you add that to calibre, it will be added to your library as an epub and then sent to the device as an epub.
What I suggest is to add the KCC created book as a kepub. Firstly, install the Kepub Metadata reader and writer plugins. This will allow calibre to get metadata from the kepubs, and update it when it needs to. Then, change the extension of the KCC output to just ".kepub". And then add the books to calibre. When you send these to a Kobo device, they will be sent as kepubs. The device should display them as you have been seeing them.
If you are adding a CBR or CBZ to calibre, just send that to the device. Kobo's have native support for comics. But, they don't read the metadata from them. The KoboTouch driver can update set the metadata on the device once the book is on the device and imported. Basically, send the book to the device, eject and let the device import it, and then connect again. Assuming the options are correct, the metadata will be updated on the device.
If you are using epubs, it will probably be the code in them that is not maximizing the images. We'd need to see the code in the books to understand what is happening.

Thanks! I've just gave it a try, I changed the KCC epub extension to .kepub and even after adding it to calibre the ebook was still in the same conditions as before! I'll do some more tests this afternoon to see if something bad happens with other ebooks or when changing the metadata, but I'm pretty sure you just gave me the right answer there, thank you.
