Can't get my printer to work the network

Hi, I have a HP 970 Cse deskjet. I have a home network. When I had Windows ME on both computers, I could print to the printer through this computer. Now the other computer says I can add the printer, but it is offline. It isn't offline and it works's fine on this computer (the one with XP) I am running both computers through a linksys router and a switch box. I can transfer files back and forth fine. Just can't get the old computer to print to the network printer. It also comes up with the error User intervention required. I went to the HP site, but couldn't find any answers. Is there something I'm doing wrong as far as printer sharing?
