Q: sharing printer using os and windows

I'm trying to connect to another computer that is a pc and running windows 7 and the printer is attached to it. I now have a screen on my computer that is asking me for a Name and Location which I have no idea what it wants.

On the menu bar it has put an icon that shows a Yellow triangle with a question mark in it and a red dot with a number for each time I have tried to print something.

Please help.

As far as i can tell on both computers file sharing is on.

on my mac I recognizes the printer i want to use.

on the pc i can see my mac but i still can't print. I think it has something to do with the box that wants a name and location for the printer.

thanks

MacBook, iOS 6.0.2
