How do you network print from a vista pc to a xp pc?

Q. I have 2 computers: 1 Vista laptop and 1 XP desktop with a printer and network sharing already set up. I can plug the printer directly into both computers and it will work. On the other hand when i try to add my printer as a network printer on my Vista computer it can see the printer on the network but for some reason it cannot connect and shows the following: Windows cannot connect to the printer. Operation could not be completed (error 0x000003eb). Help please!

    Hook it to the desk top computer then make it a shared printer, you will need to have the desk top on when you want to print from your laptop. make sure that you have the printer set as default on both and that it has been installed on both computers.
