Shared printer issues often stem from incorrect sharing permissions on the host computer, network discovery being disabled, or the printer driver not being installed on the client computers. Ensure the printer is shared with the appropriate permissions, network discovery is enabled on both machines, and the correct driver is installed on each client.
