Printiers.....HELP!


Recommended Posts

Posted

I was hoping someone could help me. Here's the issue:

 

I have a domain user that signs onto a Terminal Server which is not

part of the domain. (She signs in as as a local user for that server

with admin. rights) When she signs in NONE of her printers come up.

Not even the ones locally attached to her machine. If I sign in as

administrator then the printers on her system come up.

 

I checked on the TS and found that she was in there as a local admin.

I checked all AD and local user properties, and made sure that the

printers area was checked. I even checked security properties on the

printer.

 

If I sign in with her name on the TS I am able to connect to her

printer (on her local machine) as long as I use my local admin.

credentials. I tired signing on with the domain first to see if it

made a diference. It doesn't. It seems that if I sign in with her name

on the TS, map the printer using admin credentials, then I can print.

However, upon logging out and back in I have to do it again because

although the printer is in there, it doesn't allow me to print to it.

 

 

Help!!

Is the rdp client configured correctly for printer redirection?

Which version of the rdp client is she using?

Are there any warnings or errors in the EventLog on the server when

she connects?

Don't map the printer manually, that's only confusing things more,

because the port will change for every session.

RDP client is configured for printers. It's the version included on

Windows XP SP2. In the event log it I see a message stating that the

printer could not be installed. However, when I sign in as admin. I

can see the printer, and print to it.
