Default "Directory Service is Currently Unavailable"

Recently, my MS Word 2007, cannot print to from my laptop (wireless) to the
shared printer attached to a PC on my home network. It can see the printer,
but cannot connect to it. When I search for the printer, I get the message
"Directory Service is currently unavailable."
I can print to this printer from other Office programs and Wordpad. I have
rebooted the laptop, uninstalled and reinstalled the printer from Windows XP,
turned the printer off and on, and rebooted the host PC (Windows Vista). I
get all the latest Office and Windows updatest automatically.
I have run out of things to try. Do you have any suggestions?
