Share a Shared Printer

Comp A connect to a shared printer on Comp B (named PrinterX on Comp A).
How to share PrinterX so that Comp C can connect to that shared printer of Comp A.

On Comp A:
Add printer > Create a new local port (defined as \\CompB\SharePrnName)
Share the printer

On Comp C:
Add printer (Network) as usual

Only works at least with WindowsXP (?)
