Can't connect to Printer

After getting this vista laptop, I could never connect to my network printer. The printer is connected to another computer, with the other computer running XP on with internet access. Vista detects the printer, but whenever I try to connect I get a Windows cannot connect to the printer. Operation could not be completed (Error 0x000003eb).

My System

Check that the driver is Vista compatible.

Also, which printer? Check the manufacturers support site for the error message.
