Default Network problems XP-Vista

I'm trying to print from a Vista Laptop to a XP Desktop. I've gone thru all
the networking protocall and it still doesn't work. My vista sees the XP PC.
When I click the icon I get network error. Windows cannot access \\xp
computer. Also get printing error. The problem is probably very simple but
can't seem to solve it. Any suggestions.
