Default Printing from XP laptop to Vista connected printer

I have recently got a new vista desktop. Printer installed fine (epson
stylus photo r320) on vista but I cannot see it on the network when I try to
add it from my XP laptop. Both computers are visible on th network and I can
access laptop files from the vista machine but cannot sem to find the
printer. I have turned on printer sharing on the vista machine but so far
nothing! Any ideas?

Have you been into the Networking and Sharing Center and turned on Sharing
there?
