Printers installed on a TS server not showing in sessions

[Guest Chris Swinney]

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

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.
