Printing From VistaTo Printer on XP Machine

I have a lap top which runs Vista Home Premium. I wish to print across my
home network to a HP Deskjet 930c printer which is connected via USB cable
to my desktop PC which runs XP Home. The Vista machine found the printer
on the network and installed the drivers but will not print. I get a
message which seems to indicate that I need to install the Vista printer
driver on the XP machine which sounds a bit weird, especially as the HP web
site simply says that the required drivers are already in Vista. Can
anyone throw any light on this for me please.
