Answers:
1. Permissions problem. Create an account on the computer sharing the printer with the exact same user name and logon you use on the remote computer. When you try to connect it should recognize you as valid user and let you connect.
2. Vista or 3rd-party firewall is blocking you. Disable the firewall and test. If your router is firewalling your Internet connection you really do not need to run firewalls on your computers.
Vista's built in Help is really good and has step by step instructions for many common tasks. Search help for "printer sharing" or "firewall". Sorry, but that is all the time I can spare. I hope this helps.
