Printers on Terminal Server

[Tiger Boon]

Hi there,

Assuming I have 10 Users.
And each Users have 2 local printers configured.

All 10 Users are Remote Users accessing Terminal Server.
When everyone logon to Terminal Server, there are 20 Printers available on
the Server.

Is there a way to hide the Printers belong to other Users?
In other words, User A have access to his/her own Printer only.

I hope this is clear.

regards,
Boon

Hello,

a user can see only his own printers by default. Exept you make them
power-users or administrators.
So there is no need to hide.

On the TS server, use the Terminal Services Configuration to configure
it. I don't recall where, but it's probably in the TCP-RDP connection
setup......

Re: Printers on Terminal Server

Sounds like your users are power users or administrators on the server.
remove them from those groups and they will only see their own printers from
that point on.
