Mac 10.5.6 to HP LaserJet P1006 Network Printing?

I have an issue here that I could really use some help with.

I've downloaded the driver from HP... HP LaserJet P1000-P1500 Series...and that works if the printer is connected via USB.

However, the primary computer for this printer is a Windows XP and thus I need to connect via the network.

Going through the "Add Printer" process, I can see the printer in my network...but the driver isn't showing up in the list of options...which I don't get, since I figured that since I've installed the driver it would show up in the list, but alas it is not.

Any ideas?

Thank you very much.
 
You cannot use HP's USB drivers to communicate with a networked printer. You may use a CUPS driver for your printer. Elsewhere on this forum you will find instructions for communicating from your Mac with a Windows shared printer.
