You did actually set it up as a NETWORK printer, and not a local printer?

Press F1, type in Share Printer, press enter, read the instructions.

I don't use Internet Printing but this is how I print on theNetwork. I put
a shortcut on the Client's desktop which points to the shared printer.
That's it. Of course you need to see the shared printers on the Client.
And the server (the machine that is sharing the Printer) must have the
necessary drivers on it for the client. You can add those by going to the
Printers in the Control Panel applet (on the machine with the Printer
Attached to it) | Properties | and click the Sharing tab. Add additional
drivers.
