I have TS 2003 running wirh printer redirst working for most users.

I new user has a Multi-Funtion printer Canon MPC600F

I get to following error:

Driver Canon MPC600F Printer required for printer Canon MPC600F Printer is
unknown. Contact the administrator to install the driver before you log in
again.

I downloaded the driver and tryed to install the driver for the server (used
the printer redirect wizard) but I do not have a print only driver, only the
whole suite.
I do not want to(not can I) install the full application on the server.

Is there a generic driver to fix issues like this?

Re: Printer Redirect issue

Multi-function printers are not very well suited for redirection in
a TS session. Most drivers are not compatible, and you will not get
multi-functionality.
You can either try to get basic printing by mapping the printer to
a native window driver (recommended approach - see KB 239088), or
try to unpack the Canon package, locate the proper .inf file,
right-click it and install the driver only (use this method at your
own risk!).
