network printer & win2k

I have a HP 1220c hooked up to a win95 machine and shared. I am able to get it to print from the local 95 machine and a windows NT4 machine but not the windows 2000 machine. Here is the deal I removed anything that had to do with that printer from the windows 2000 machine. Browsed on the network to the printer and clicked to set it up the machine locked up I had to go into task manager and kill the application. I also tried going through add printer and pointing to the share on the network. It listed the printer but when I tried to continue it said that the printer name or path was incorrect. I am at a total loss I would GREATLY appreciate any help I can get.
