Dear Collegues,

I have two computers, the first computer runs Windows XP Professional and
has a printed installed. The second one is a laptop which runs Windows Vista
Home Premium. In the first computer I usually have the printed shared and I
never had problems printing from other Windows XP. Now with the second
computer Vista recognizes shared printer and installs the driver, but when I
try to print something it does not work. Could you please help me?

Don't know if this makes any difference but in the Network Center on
the
Vista laptop have you turned on Printer sharing?
