Default Vista prining to XP printserver not working

Situation:
XP print server for Lexmark X1150. Print ok from any XP pc in the network.

Vista PC ; downloaded new driver from lexmark. X1150 connected to Vista (via
USB): print ok

Printer connected to XP server: print from Vista does not work. Result
message in Vista PC says print is ok and printed on network printer. Real
result is: no print at all and also not in printqueue on XP server.

Workgroup name: for all machines in network the same.
Network printer is visible in Vista PC printers.

Filesharing from Vista o XP is OK.

What can be wrong and how can we solve the problem?

Any help will be great.
Bob

Try installing Vista drivers on the XP machine. Or these posts may help,

Vista: Cannot connect to the printer, access denied
Vista: cannot connect to the printer - error 0x000003e3
