Networking a printer with XP and NT!

I have a printer connected to an XP box on a network and I'm trying to get an NT box to connect to that printer, but have been failing miserably. When I bring up the network tree of printers on the NT box it shows all the computers on the network with a printer connected to them, but when I click on the computer it doesn't bring up the printer connected to that computer. I don't know if it's something I'm missing on the XP box or on the NT box. I've been able to connect other computers with XP to that same printer, but not one with NT. Could someone please help me out?

Thank You!
