Well Rupert I disabled the windows FW as a kind of tracing the problem , but even disabling the windows fw does not solve the problem.
On the other hand , my printer is connected to my office LAN , which have no firewall policy to prevent the printer sharing. Also in my windows 2k Machine , when I browse for the shared windows XP printer , I find it , but connection is denied through some reason which I try to find. Anyway , thanks a lot for trying help me ....any further suggestions will be appreciated.

Is that the only fw installed on the pc? How are the two pc's networked are they through a router if so does the router have a built in fw, which may be denying access? On the W2k pc have you tried going to Control Panel and "adding" the printer again by browsing for it on the network? "Access Denied" definitely sounds like a fw problem, do you have a fw on the W2k pc that may not be allowing access?
