Hve you tried "Windows Update" during the printer install process? Yes; it can't find anything I ran Windows update and it showed that printer in the list it returned. It takes upwards of 10 minutes to get the list back and during that time it appears that the window is frozen but it is not. Be patient. It takes a long time but eventually comes back and says that it cannot be found on Windows Update. Just to be clear, you selected "Windows Update" on the add printer screen and waited until the list of printers was updated?
I just did this and then installed the HP with no problem. We are getting warmer. I think I had the wrong drivers.

You must be using Windows 7 RC1? Build did not have this issue On the screen where it shows a list of printers, click "Windows Update" Find the printer and finish the installation.
Then run add printer wizard again, choosing network printer and the installation should finish successfully since the printer driver now exists. I only hope they get this straightened out before RTM I should add, this only affects adding a network printer that is shared on a print server. Mapping the network printer directly by it's IP address works fine. Had a similar issue on win7 64bit. Trying to install an epson as a network printer but had no 64bit drivers available, neither from epson windows update.
Tried ti use the 32bit one's in compatability but no dice. So I connected the printer via usb, windows 7 then downloaded the drivers thru windows update. I disconected the printer then tried to install it as a network printer again, choose have disk, let me pick my device, choose the new usb printer drivers that were now on the list and everythings setup fine now. Hope this helps. Friday, May 15, PM. That is a great idea.
