I think what is needed is an ipp proxy that will announce itself as an HP

I wonder if printing to the USB port of an Airport Express would get around
that but I've read it uses mDNS (Bonjour) and IPP so who knows. How new is
ePrint? I'm pretty sure my 3 year old wireless HP printer doesn't have it.
As long as it is an HP printer that does IPP protocol, you should be
ok. The problem comes from WebOS based devices that can ONLY print
using ePrint. Their driver checks the the printer's information and if
it doesn't recognize it as an HP printer (even though the pertinent
print capabilities are good), it won't print to it.
Airprint on iOS and Mac OS/X is more relaxed as it supports both ePrint
and CUPS networking.
