Printer sharing & drivers

Hi
I have a home network consisting off two desktops (1 XP and 1 Vista
Ultimate) plus a laptop running XP. My network and file sharing works just
fine, as did my printing until I decided to connect the printer (an Epson
Stylus Photo R310) to the Vista computer instead of the XP. I can print from
the Vista directly to the R310, but when I try to set it up as a netwroked
computer on the XP using the "Add printer" wizard, I can SEE the printer
connected to the Vista computer, but it wants me to browse for drivers. The
Vista machine has Vista drivers and the XP machine has XP drivers, but I
don't know where to browse for them!!! It is frustrating being so close but
so far. Any help gratefully accepted.

Tammy
