Problems sharing in a WinXP pro workgroup

N

I have a printer hooked up to a Win XP pro machine via
USB. I want to share it out to another XP pro machine on
my workgroup. I have ran network setup wizard, everything
seems to be configured correctly. The machine with the
printer installed on it can access resources on the other
machine, but the "client" can't access resources on the
machine with the printer. I have set up sharing, etc.
The two machines can ping each other. Anyone know of a
solution? Thanks in advance.

Have you allowed the printer to be shared?

Start>Printers and Faxes, right click on the printer,
select "Sharing..."

Good luck.
Eric
