The Generic PPD is a general Mac functionality that allows you to use the most basic functions of your printer-print a document. If your computer can’t find a compatible driver, it will try to add it with the Generic PPD. You might see an option to Choose a Driver-you can either use Auto Select to have your computer scan for compatible software or choose one yourself. The printer should show up here if the correct driver is installed, and if all the connections are set up correctly.

Just select your printer here you can name it whatever you want. It should open the Add window, which will display all the printers available on your local network via Bonjour. To do this, go to System Preferences > Printers & Scanners and hit the Plus (+) button on the bottom-left side. If not, you can still add your printer manually and get it set up.
