Guest Roger Vicker Posted October 12, 2008 Posted October 12, 2008 Environment: single W2K8 server domain (no other server of any size, function or flavor) and users on XP over a WAN. The users can connect, work and see their local printers redirected in RDP. However whenever they print nothing ever arrives at their local printer. The server's event log shows an 6161 event.

Guest Vera Noest [MVP] Posted October 12, 2008 Posted October 12, 2008 Re: Printing via RDP from W2K8 access denied error The most likely cause for this problem is that you are using a printer driver which isn't TS compatible.

Guest Roger Vicker Posted October 14, 2008 Posted October 14, 2008 Re: Printing via RDP from W2K8 access denied error Yep. And in at least one case all the patches since that. It sure looks like something going on in the server because it is the one logging the access denied 6161. I have seen some posts about "domain users" authority to the Spooler folder but this is W2K8.
