WPA Printer on WPA2 Network

Hopefully a simple question.

We want to use a HP 460cb Wireless printer on a small wireless network which
has been set up based on WPA2. The printer optopns are open, WEP, WPA-PSK.
There is no WPA2 option. The printer uses a Compact Flash Wireless card.

I'm assuming that the lack of a WPA2 choice means it probably doesn't
support WPA2.

Any comments? Anybody able to confirm?

(and yes, I cannot get the printer working on this wireless network).

Thanks,

If it doesn't say it, it doesn't support it.

So shift to WPA-PSK for all nodes on your WLAN segment; that's pretty
safe if you are smart about the password.
