i have two network printers connected to a xp home pc. everytime i try to
connect to them using vista, it says: "Windows cannot connect to the
printer. Operation could not be completed (error 0x00000003)." does anyone
know what this error message means?
 
yes, all the shares and printers are shown

error 3 is network path not found.

type net view in a command window targeting the XP machine

net view \\XPMACHINE

are the print shares listed?
