Hi Guys,

I have a problem installing the correct driver for my printer.
I am using a os x and appletalk compatible print server from edimax, with an HP photosmart 7660 printer.
I have successfully installed the printer using a gutenprint driver for the 7550 (not the 7660) which works ok.
I can install the correct hp driver when the printer is plugged in via USB no problem.... but when i unplug it and plug it into the print server apple doesn't show me the 7660 driver in the dropdown list... instead i have to use one of the "pre-installed osx drivers, or the guttenprint / gimprint drivers"
Does anyone know why, when you install an HP driver, it doesn't appear as an option when manually installing a printer in the "Printer Info"- "Printer Model" dropdown menu.
Is there any way of manually selecting the driver or moving it to a different path so it shows up in this list.
Any help would be really appreciated.. i'm tearing my hair out at the moment.
Thanks, Nick
