I am running Terminal Services on Windows Server 2003 R2. I have 3 users who
are using Remote Desktop to login to Terminal Service. All three users and
coming in from different locations and they all have the same printer an HP
Laserjet P3005 plugged into their local computer. For 2 of the users there
printers are redirecting no problem. The third person's printer is working
locally but not when she logs into Terminal Services. When she logs in her
printer does not even show up. Is there something else I should check on her
local computer? What port should her computer be loaded on her local
computer. She also has other printers plugged into her local computer.
Would this cause any problems.

Thanks for your help
 
Re: Printer Redirection

Check the configuration of printer redirection in the RDP client,
update the RDP client to at least the XP SP2 version or apply KB
article 302361 to get support for redirection of non-standard local
port names.

302361 - Printers That Use Ports That Do Not Begin With COM, LPT,
or USB Are Not Redirected in a Remote Desktop or Terminal Services
Session
