Hi all,

I'm running windows 2003 terminal Service, with Network IP Printers
installed (not RDC printer). is there a way to control users' default
printers whenever they logon to Terminal Service? can this be done using
group policy?

Thanks,

Yen

Unless someone else knows otherwise, I just have the user set their
own default printer during their initial login. TS should select
the same printer upon subsequent logins to the TS.

Some one else will need to comment on the group policy part.

What i am doing at our customers is using a kix script wich set the Default
printers for different users by looking at the location where they are or by
membership of a group in AD.
