I have a new Vista64 bit operating system machine with two HP printers
installed. I can print from the direct connected machine just fine. However
the two networked machines, one is Vista32 bit and the other is Windows
XPpro, will not print. They will send the job and you can see the job on the
Vista64 machine but it will not print the job. Any ideas?

No solution... I have the same problem.

Recently upgraded old XP main system to Vista64 with 2 usb printers
attached. I can print to the printers from the local machine but cannot
print from our wireless XP laptops back to the Vista64 system.

I have tried to add additional driver support for x86 system in the Vista
printer control panel, but I get an error that states the x86 driver is
incompatible with this computers architecture.

The LT's will print fine if I plug the usb cable in direct from the
printer(s) to the XP machines. But thats the point of WiFi so I DONT have to
go plug into the printer every time.

Your problem can probably be fixed with 'this'
(http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/170811-setting-up-shared-printer-xp-vista.html)
tutorial. I have set mine up this way and it makes it quite easy to
print. Our host is a XP with 1 printer attached and we have 1 Vista and
1 XP Laptop Connected this way. Also try to download the drivers for
your printer from the Canon page first, and then attach the printers.

Hope this fixes your problem,

Extensa
