Default Can't Print

I am on a different Win XP Pro PC and cannot print to PC A even though
it shows in list.

If I go to the printers list, it says the PC A printer name is invalid.

I can sit at PC A and print to this printer.


WHat happened ?

PC A can see PC B.

I deleted printers on PC B and tried to Add but it will not let me even
though PC B shows those printers in the list.
