Is the printer connected to the Livebox or another machine?

If it's on another windows machine try enabling the Guest user on both systems (just to test) and on the client try adding the printer using whatever IP address the server has (Start > cmd > erm... it's either ifconfig or ipconfig forgot which).

If this hooks up the printer and prints a test page then you're laughing.
