Default Share printer Vista Ultimate 64 computer with XP Pro 32 bit

I have the following:

Desktop
---------
Compaq with AMD 64 Dual Core
HP 1320 laserjet

Laptop
--------
Compaq with P4

Both computers 'see' each other just fine. HP 64 bit driver works fine on
Vista machine.

But when I share the printer and try to install 'additional' drivers for XP
32 bit drivers, Vista says that the 32 bit drivers are not correct for this
machine. Which is correct, but I only want the 32 bit drivers there for the
XP machines which will use the shared printer.

What am I missing here.

Thanks

Al

I'm having the same problem. Doesn't look like this is a good place to get
answers!
