HP LaserJet Pro CP1025nw Color Printer

I just learned that my Synology NAS -- DS220j -- can make a USB printer into an Apple AirPrint printer. But when I plug in my CP1025nw into the DS220j using the USB, the printer setup asks for me to select a driver. And, of course, the cp1025 isn't an option. The Color Laserjet drivers it lists are for:

2500, 4500, 4550, 4600, 5, 5000, 5500, and 8550GN. 

They also list other Business Inkjet, Color Inkjet, DesignJet, Deskjet, LaserJet, Mopier, OfficeJet, PSC, and PhotoSmart drivers. But I don't think those are what I need.

In addition, there are some generic drivers available. They all begin with "Generic PCL.."

...4, 4 LF, 5, 5 LF, 5c, 5c LF, 5e, 5e LF, 6/PCL XL, and 6/PCL XL LF.

 

It would be nice to have the AirPrint since we're only using iPads and iPhones for the most part now.
