"Add A Printer" Wizard Cannot Locate Network Printers

Yes, the firewalls have been enabled properly, and Yes, the network printer
on the other computer is set for sharing. The Add A Printer wizard just hangs
displaying that there aren't any printers to display and a status message
that "Documents Waiting". It will stay in that state permanently. If I
continue it will tell me that I need to enter a valid printer name. That
doesn't work either. Any suggestions that you might have would be greatly
welcome. Thanks!
