I have to consider myself a newbie on this. I'm in the Properties tab
for C:\ on the Vista desktop, and when I enter "Chris" (the user of
the Vista laptop) I am told that "Chris" cannot be found. (If the
links you provided answered this question, I couldn't find that
answer.)

The printer in question does not have a Vista driver - according to
Lexmark, the manufacturer. It prints just fine from the Vista
desktop, certainly without a Vista driver. Is there some other
possible mechanism to remove the password requirement? (If the links
you provided answered this question, I couldn't find that answer
either.)
Thanks . . . . and if Vista's capabilities don't at this point extend
to networking Vista computers together, I can handle not working on
this further.
