Ensure you have not installed NetBIOS (non-TCP/IP) on the Windows XP machine. MS seems to have introduced a "bug" which makes printing very problematic when that is installed (solely or with NB/TCP) when communicating with an OS/2 box.

NetBIOS solely often wont work for printing at all (sporadic) as even with NetBEUI inactive or "uninstalled" it still tries using that for printing or some portion of the network handshaking for printing to the OS/2 box.
