I have no passwords on my Vista Ultimate. I cannot print from XP machines.
All I get is error mesages.
Why does it say In Network and Sharing Center "Printer Sharing ON" (Password
Required) ?
By the looks of all the threads there are plenty of Sharing problems.
I'm up to 3 problems that cannot be resolve when I hit 5 It will be format
time and back on with XP Pro 64 and put Vista back on after SP 2.
 
You may want to create the same user with password no both computers. These
links may help,

Why do I need passwordYes, no paswword or blank password is easieer for
hacking. For the reason, Vista may disbale the sharing for remote access if
you use blank password. ...
