Can't get proper HP printer settings dialog, only featureless generic Windows Print settings.

Question

So I have an HP Deskjet 3050 J610, connected via wifi.  I can print from it just fine, but I only have the standard Windows printing options, which are very limited.  I don't get any color options, or printing on both sides, or anything like that.  Basically my only options are "print in grayscale" and "print in Max DPI".  So I presume I am using generic printer drivers, instead of the proper HP drivers.  I remember I once had it working right, and it had a nice HP dialog with pictures that would ask me if I want to print for a presentation, or draft, or print on both sides, etc.
But I already have the proper HP drivers installed.  So I run "HP Deskjet 3050 J610 series.exe" in the HP printer drivers folder.  I click "connect to a new printer".  I click 'wireless'.  It finds my printer.  I select it under "model name", and press 'next'.  It sets up the printer properly, but when I try to go and print with it, I'm still presented with the crippled generic windows print dialog!
How do I get the nice HP drivers settings dialog back again?
EDIT: I'm on Windows 8.1 Preview.  I have also tried to set up the printer on a Windows 7 laptop, using the same driver download from the official HP website, and that laptop too also only gets to use the generic windows printing dialog!  What am I doing wrong?

the same info is not under Help or in the Pages manual under printing options.
Perfectly normal.
The Print dialog doesn't belong to Pages but to the operating system.
So, it's use is described in the operating system help.
Here is an example of what we may find in this help :
