Printer driver configuration on Terminalserver

[Guest Quirin Pasquay]

Hello,

 

we have a windows 2003 (sp2) terminlalserver enviroment. I've installed a

Brother HL 1450 with an optional paper tray on my local workstation via usb.

If I login to the rdp session I can see my local printer redirected. But the

configuration that I made on my local printer driver (paper tray, duplex

ect.) are not there. If I make the changes on the server they are lost after

logging off.

 

Is it possible, that the windows termianlserver reads the configuration from

my local workstation?

 

Thanks

No, the local settings are not transferred to your session. But you

should be able to save them after configuring them once on the

server. Here's how:

 

291251 - Non-default printer properties are not reflected in a

Terminal Services redirected printer

Thanks for your reply.

 

In the printer defaults I can only set the resolution ect. but it isn't

possible to set the printers configuration (options) like paper trays or

duplex engine. Is there a way to change the printer drivers default

configuration for this settings?

Re: Antw: Re: Printer driver configuration on Terminalserver

 

First of all, I posted the wrong link. Meant to refer you to this

one:

 

243942 - Terminal Services printer redirection not signaled on

change to server-side Device Settings tab in Windows 2000 or

Windows Server 2003

http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=243942

 

But now I'm a bit unsure, because in you first post you wrote that

you *can* change the settings on the server, but they are lost

after you close the session (which KB 243942) should fix, but in

your second post you write that you cannot even configure the

settings on the server. If that's the case, then maybe you are

using the fallback driver?
