I have a client that has a Xerox WorkCentre 7335 multifunction device.
 
I added the printer to the SBS 2003 server and gave everyone full control. I added it with direct IP printing.
 
I attempted to go to a vista client and do \\server\printer and I get an error message "access is denied".
 
Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

The problem is that UAC blocks the installation of the driver on the Vista machine. 
The way I've found to get printers on Vista clients is described in this MS Forum post:  http://snipr.com/3t8yq
 
Supposedly you can also just install the driver locally, but as you see in that thread it doesn't always work.
