What kind of error messages do you get?
Can other computers print to this printer?
I've noticed in Vista that for Peer to Peer printing solutions, you may have to authenticate to the machine hosting the printer. This can be done by typing in your windows Start menu search bar \computer
Then press enter.
You should get prompted for a username password to authenticate to the other machine.
Then you should be able to print.
YMMV

Hi Jeff - Here is a link to a web site with detailed instructions:

Hope that helps,

I didn't see any other posts by Jeff and so I don't know if his problem was fixed or not but when I went to go and get a printer recently, I was thinking about going for a wireless one and the clerk advised me against it because you cannot be online and connecting to the printer at the same time. If Jeff was doing something online and trying to print, that would be one big reason why it wouldn't work, and also a huge reason why wireless printing is very overrated.
