Access is denied message when trying to access a remote printer

I have a wireless LAN with the printer attached to desktop computer. My Sony
VGNFS640 with VISTA Home Premium recognizes the LAN and shows me the remote
printer (and shared files) but when I try to have the computer recognize the
printer, I get an access denied message. I have disabled the firewall on the
desktop but the Access Denied message is still there. Any suggestions?

RE: Access is denied message when trying to access a remote printer

I have the same problem. A new vista machine on our xp network can not access
remote printers that are working fine on the network with other xp machines.
I get the access denied message. Fire wall is off, sharing is on.
Frustrating for a new machine.
