How to print to a windows networked printer?

Hi, I have a Hp Photosmart 7800 printer attached to a windows computer that has the wifi. How would I go about printing to that from my mac, connected to the network? I'm running Leopard 10.5.2 and when I try to add the new printer in system preferences it just won't detect the printer over the network. I have also tried typing in the ip for the windows computer in the ip tab and it says its a valid and complete address, but when I try to print to it, it gets stuck on trying to connect to it. I have also googled for the printer's drivers to install on the mac but there are none...

Any ideas how to go about setting it up?
