Default Can't access shared printer

I am having a problem sharing a printer attached to a Vista Home Premium
system. When I tryto install it, I get a message stating that the setup
program can not connect.

I have printer sharing turned on
I have password protected sharing turned off
The firewall is disabled for testing
A "net view \\pcname" displays the printer


Looking at the frames on the wire, I see my XP system sending a DCERPC bind
to the Vista system. The Vista system replies with
nca_s_fault_access_denied error. I don't see anything in the event logs on
the Vista system. Any idea what is going on here?

Thanks,
-Jeff

It turns out that this problem was a result of the driver installation
procedure. I am using a Dell 924 printer and it seems that I am not the
only one who has encountered this problem. Rather than using the Dell
install procedure, I simply added the printer manually and it works just
fine.
