You have three machines. One that has the printer we will call the server. This machine is logged in as say a user called JAMESTOWN with password BadPass123 now you need to either configure this account on the other machines accessing the printer so it says ohh thats Jamestown he’s cool.

Currently you probably have one logged in as administrator one as JamesTown etc… Windows does not think you have access and does not let you get to the printer.

Either get the permissions worked out and matched up or share the printer for EVERYONE and you should no longer have an issue.

Let me know if this helps or if you need further clarification. And if so we can do a full post on workgroup printing.

They have a printer plugged directly into one of them and they want to share it out to the other two. They used to have a similar setup with Windows ME before they finally upgraded. I tried to share out the printer using the 'print server's' IP address, but it isn't working. I have shared it out on the server computer, and opened the port in the firewall. It is an authentication/trust issue though I think. I also made sure they were all on the same workgroup. I have a friend who just got three new vista computers.
