Printer problem

Hi, I am a first-timer here. Had a friend help me set up a home network over the weekend. 3 desktops, 2 printers. All was well yesterday. Today, low and behold, one of the desktops cannot see the printer that is directly connected to it! I re-added the printer, and now it shows up as a choice, but print jobs are not successful... "error" message every time. I re-installed the driver (Vista) - no good. I deleted the printer, unplugged it from the computer, and rebooted, then plugged the printer back in (USB), I expected to get the "found new hardware" popup. Nope. Nothing. What gives? Any suggestions welcome. Thanks very much.

Hello

Are you sure the printer is set to default for the computer.
What is your OS for all three.
