Trying to Share a printer on an XP system with Vista System...
I searched, and found this thread:
http://forum.pcmech.com/showthread.p...twork+printers I have the same set up, and I try all those methods, and none of them worked... I went onto the XP pc with the printer, and turned on printer sharing, and i come back to my vista pc to printers, add printer, network printer, and it can't find the printer...so thats wher I'm stuck at...I click "the printer i want is not listed" and click the XP system, and search for the printer, and get error "Windows Cannot Access COMPUTER NAME" can anyone help me?

XP Home or Pro? If Pro, is simple file sharing enabled or disabled? Are they both in the same workgroup?

Its XP Home, file sharing is enabled on both computers, and both are in the same workgroup.
