How To Make Hp 5200 Postscript Printer Work With Windows 7?

I have an hp 5200 laserjet printer - postscript works with windows XP. I got a new computer with windows 7 & the post script option does not work. Is there anyway to make this work? I am basically trying to print 1/2 tones out with the printer. And it does not give the Option of a "ppostscript" box when I go to print. I tried downloading the Universal Driver (if there is a setting) I can't seem to figure it out. Is this postscript printer compatitble to windows 7? It does print "regular" black & white prints - just not 1/2 tones. Thanks, Lindsay
