Printer Sharing Fails After Reboot

I have a Vista x64 machine and a Vista 32 bit Ultimate machines on a small
home network. I have a printer attached to each PC and I share the printers
to the other PC. Every time I reboot the Vista x64 bit machine, Printer
Sharing seems to reset to "not shared". I can manually go set it to shared
again after the reboot and it works again until the next reboot.

I see similar issues on the web like:
File and Printer sharing turned off on reboot
but no solutions yet.

Any ideas on how to solve this or script it so that upon reboot I can share
this printer again? I use OneCare for the firewall with automatic printer
sharing turned off (as x64 and 32 bit automatic printer sharing is not
supported).
