Although Apple's Airport Extreme can share a printer it was not quite so easy to use from my Vista Business computer. The instructions from Apple had me able to print only half a page to my USB HP Deskjet. Then the print job would error out. To make matters worse I could not delete the print job either.

So, here's what worked for me and hopefully for anyone else with this problem.

1. In your Printer Properties > Ports tab, disable "Enable bidirectional support". This allowed me to delete the print jobs.
2. In your Printer Properties > Advanced tab, disable "Enable advanced printing features". This allowed me to print whole pages.
   

I don't know if it will work for every printer but I can now print from my Vista computer.
