Hi,

We have a Windows 2000 TS server that has two printers installed directly on
the machine. I wan these printer to show when a user logs on to a remote
session. However, only the user local printers are showing.

If I log onto the TS server form the users machine but use the administrator
credentials, then the printers are available.

What am I missing?

Many thanks

Chris

Are there any event viewer messages when the printers fail to show up for
non-admin users?

No, but no panic. Apparently this is "normal"

I created a simple VB script to add the network printers to the user profile
when the user logs on.
