I have a desktop Vista computer wireconected to a wireless router.
This computer is also wired to a printer.
I have a laptop XP that has access to the internet wirelessly.
I have set the Vista printer to be shared and the files.
I have downloaded the LLTD on the XP laptop.
The XP laptop does not recognize the printer.
Both units are in the same workgroup.
What am I missing?

It sounds like you haven't added the new printer (which is a network
printer) to the laptop. You have to go to "Add a Printer" in Control Panel,
and then go through the add printer process for a network printer. Make sure
your laptop is connected to your network when you do this.
