Trouble connecting to HP2800 Inkjet on XP32

I run a small peer to peer network with 4 Pcs, 2 XP Pro 32, 1 W2K, 1 Vista 64.

1 of the XP32 boxes has an HP Business Deskjet 2800 PCL5 USB printer attached and shared.

When I try to install the printer in the Vista 64 box, it says the XP box does not have the proper driver available. If I install it as a Local Printer, it immediately finds the proper driver (it comes packed with Vista 64). How can I do to connect to the shared 2800 in the XP box AND use the Vista 64 drivers in the Vista Box?

Any help will be welcome
