Default Vista Print Sharing Password

I have no passwords on my Vista Ultimate. I cannot print from XP machines.
All I get is error mesages.
Why does it say In Network and Sharing Center "Printer Sharing ON" (Password
Required) ?
By the looks of all the threads there are plenty of Sharing problems.
I'm up to 3 problems that cannot be resolve when I hit 5 It will be format
time and back on with XP Pro 64 and put Vista back on after SP 2.
