Printer not found.

Hi
I have a PC (running on Win XP Home) to which my D-Link router and Epson
RX520 Printer is connected.
I recently purchased a Packard Bell Notebook (running on Win Vista).
What Im trying to do is to link my Notebook up to the Epson printer.
I have turned UAC on and ran a search for printers, but none were found.
On the Notebook, I checked in Control Panel and it is showing "Default
Printer, Send to OneNote2007, 0, Ready and the printer is ticked.
Yet when I try to print anything...it wont.

What am I doing wrong. Please help.
Thanks in advance
Michael B

Re: Printer not found.

Did you remember to share the printer on the PC?
