Computer using wrong driver for network printer

We have an HP plotter installed on a print server that is using a particular driver, but when we install it from the server, the client computer is using some generic Microsoft one.

I asked the server team to look into why this could be happening but they just returned the ticket to me saying they don’t manage computers and the driver on the server is correct (which it does appear so).

I’m stumped as to why this is happening. Any ideas?

Powershell output, checking the printer on the server vs installed on a computer:

PS C:> Get-Printer -cn SERVERNAME | Select Name, DriverName | Where Name -Like "*PLOTTER" | Format-List

Name       : *****-PLOTTER
DriverName : HP DesignJet T2600dr V4


PS C:> Get-Printer | Select Name, DriverName | Where Name -Like "*PLOTTER" | Format-List

Name       : \SERVERNAME*****-PLOTTER
DriverName : Microsoft enhanced Point and Print driver
