Problem accessing printer.

I have a Lexmark X215 USB connected to the XP Pro box and shared with my home
network - my otherXP box can access the printer ok.
From my Vista Home basic box i can access files and see the printer on the
XP Pro box, but when I tried to connect the printer I got the message saying
"There is not enough memory to complete the task, stop other programs and try
again" .
I have 1.5 Gig RAM on my Vista box and NO other programs running.
I am not sure what am I missing here and would appreciate all the helps.
Regards,
Hank.
