Setting up a networked LaserWriter Pro 610 in 10.2

I've experienced that the Princenter.app's option "automatic installation" of a PPD is not a good way to configure a LaserWriter Pro 610 under Jaguar. After a lot of unsuccessfully attempts - and a growing wish to come back to OS 10.1.x - finally I've tried the following way:

  1. Launch Printcenter.app
  2. Remove the printer (that doesn't work at all!)
  3. Select 'Other' in the pop-up menu of Installation window
  4. Select the Laserwriter 630 PPD in 'Classic's System Folder -> Extensions -> Printers Description folder.
Now I can print my documents in Jaguar!
