In any case the Generic PPD is the worst solution. I would try
a PPD from a newer printer with similiar properties. Maybe from
another manufacturer.

On this site you can test the PPDs on conformity with Adobe's
specifications:
 <http://cups.org/testppd.php>
You can find the reference manual e. g. here:
ftp://ftp.lprng.com/pub/LPRng/RESOURCES/ADOBE/5003.PPD_Spec_v4.3.pdf

The version 1.1 of the PPD is here:
 <http://download.info.apple.com/Apple_Support_Area/Apple_Software_Updates/English-North_American/DOS-Windows/Printing/LaserWriter_for_Windows_NT/LWNT_10.ZIP>

Maybe you could edit thr PPD manually.
