Sharing a printer with a Mac

htom18

I set up my new Macbook Pro to share my HP printer that is connected to a Windows XP machine by USB. The Windows machine has F-Secure security installed. I can print from the Mac when the firewall is off, but the connection is denied when I turn the firewall on. I set rules to allow SMB, Windows printer and file sharing, and Windows network browsing. The firewall profile is set to Office, Printer/File Sharing. Can someone tell me how to set the firewall to allow the Mac to print?

 

Thanks.
