WORKAROUND:
1. Install the printer using the HP Toolbox, but select any driver
(There are only about 5 available).
2. Open up the printer module in system settings and enter adminstrator
mode.
3. Select the printer, and edit the driver properties, selecting the
correct driver.
The printer should now work as expected.
