Epson Printer won't Install

I have an Epson DX4000 connected to a Windows XP PC and I want to print to it over the network from my X86 laptop.

 

I have used the original CD to install the Mac driver on X86, and if I connect the printer via USB it installs automatically and will print properly.

 

If I connect it back to the XP box and try to add it to X86 as a Windows Shared Printer I cannot find the DX4000 in the drop down list of Epson drivers, and so it won't install properly.

 

How do I get the installed driver to appear in that list please?
