I have a terminal that users print locally from terminal server farm. 3rd
party print monitor are hanging the login.

Is there a way to delete the 3rd party print monitors from terminal server
and have the autocreate use winprint rather then hp, dell, lexmark etc print
monitor.
 
Re: 3rd party print monitors

Completely uninstall all 3rd party printer drivers, and map
printers to a native windows printer driver by creating a custom
ntprintsubs.inf file.

Details are explained here (valid for 2003 as well):

1105, and 1106

Vera,
Can I test this on the system by removing selected drivers and it
won't affect the other. Just want to get the format correct.

Re: 3rd party print monitors

Absolutely! Take them one at a time: uninstall the 3rd party driver
and map it to a windows driver. Test from a client to verify that
the printer is redirected, using the windows driver (check the
EventLog, make sure that informational printer messages are enabled
on the TS, in Printers and Faxes - File - Server settings -
Advanced), then take the next driver.
