Printing via Vista 64 ???

I just setup a new HP running Vista64, connected my two HP printers (one laser one inkjet) and installed the 64 bit drivers. So far so good both printers work. This is on my local network that has a Vista 32 laptop and a XP pro laptop. I am attempting to print to the printers, the print job leaves the client machine, but just sets in the print que on the HP Vista 64 machine and will not print.

Is the only solution to put the printers on a separate print server?

Thanks
