help with printer sharing

[ramrod]

Hi everyone, once again I need your help. I finally managed to network two computers and share a cable connection. Now I need your help to share my epson(stylus pro) printer.
I have it hooked up to computer a. When I try to print using computer b, I get an error message which says out of paper. Its obviously not out of paper. I installed the same drivers on both computers. I enabled printer and file sharing on both computers. There is an icon of a blue hand holding the printer. I don't know what else to do? Anybody have any ideas?

COMPUTER A
AMD 1 gig tbird
abit kt7a-raid motherboard
256 mHz pc133 ram
plexwriter 12/10/32a
pioneer dvd
soundblaster x-gamer
ati radeon 64ddr vivo
win98 se

Computer B
Intel p233mHz MMX
Intel 430 TX motherboard
128 SDRAM
cd-rom
sound blaster 16
matrox millenium 2 mb
diamond monster II 8MB
win98 se

P.S. Thanks for all of your help past and present, it is much appreciated.

1. Did you set up Sharing in the Printer properties on the PC connected to the printer? You do so by clicking Start, Settings, Printers. Your printer should show up on the list and then you can right click the printer and choose Sharing. Go to the sharing tab and then make sure the Shared As button is selected and that you have given the printer a name.

2. Next you need to set up a Point and Print Client on your other PC. On that PC, goto Network Neighborhood. Find your printer (you'll need to double click on the name of the other PC) and double click on the printer (should have name you assigned it in step (1) above. Next, windows should walk you through the installation and make the connection to that printer.

Good luck...

I did what you told me do, I get a different error message. It says its printing in the print queue, but nothing happens. Got any other ideas? We are close, I can feel it.
