HP LaserJet 1160 and Airport Express

I recently got an HP LaserJet 1160le and wanted to hook it up to my network using an Airport Express. I have used other printers with the airport express in its current config with no problems, but now I have an issue.

If i plug the printer directly into my powerbook via USB, the driver is automatically detected and everything is spiffy. When I add the printer through Bonjour, it doesn't detect the driver. The 1160 and 1320 are nearly identical and the drivers are almost the same, so I choose the 1320 driver.

When I print i get a single page with a few lines that state:

%!PS-Adobe-3.0 %RBINumCopies: 1

There are a few more lines but nothing that really seems to point to the problem. When I try and add the same printer to an XP Pro machine the Bonjour Printer Wizard tells me I don't have proper privillages to add the printer through Bonjour. Anyone have any ideas or solutions?
