cannot network to my printer from my mac

I have 2 PC's, each having its own printer connected directly to it.

The first PC (Windows XP) is wireless and uses an HP printer. I have no trouble printing from my iMac G5 (10.4.8) to this printer.

The second PC (Windows XP) is the primary computer attached to the router. It has a Dell A920 printer attached. This printer was also set up in the mac printing browser through the mac Printer Setup Utility. However, when I try to print from the mac, the printer on the PC makes the usual startup sound and then stops. On the mac, I get the following error messages:

"NT_STATUS_BAD_NETWORK NAME".

This is then followed by another error message:
"Unable to connect SAMBA host".

I have tried disabling the firewall on the PC (Windows XP) with no success.

Any suggestions?

Thanks
 
Thanks. Since it was free, I can't complain. However, your answer saves me a lot of trouble in trying to get it to print.
