Re: Connecting to an XP PC printer to a Vista..

On XP computer, you configure the printer and set up printer sharing in the printer setup.

You need file and print services enabled.
Your router needs to allow file and print services

On Vista, you add a printer, choose network printer, go to your workgroup, find the XP computer and under it should be your printer.

both computers must be in the same subnet and workgroup, you also need them to have security rights to browse for the files and printers.
