Default Printer Sharing

OK. Here goes. Two machines, Vista Home Premium, Vista Business. Printer
hooked directly to the Vista Home Premium computer. Both computers connect
to the internet via a Linksys router with no problems. Printer is an HP
Deskjet D4160 and prints fine from the main computer. I am unable to install
the printer on the Vista Business machine? Tried everything I could think
of: Printer sharing on. Network discovery on. Changed settings in Windows
One Live Care, etc.

The Vista Business machine will not find the printer?
