Can't install network printer

Asked by James D Roesser

I am trying to install an Epson printer which is attached to a Vista machine on my netbook, running UNR 9.10. The 2 machines are connected via wirelss router. When I browse the network with samba, I find the workgroup and the Vista machine,but no printer. I can access files on the Vista machine from the Ubuntu box. I also have a desktop running Ubunti 8.10,connected by ethernet to the Vista machine,it found the printer and prints fine to it. Any help appreciated.
