Hello all

Another ts post and another printing question....


I have a win2k TS configured. Most printers connect without a problem. What
I seem to be having a problem with is client computer that print via a
direct IP connection (no print server) the client prints directly to the ip
addresses of the printer, in this case they are HP laserjet 1200 and 1300
printers.

When I connected with the users laptop the only printes that would not show
are the direct ip printers. The print drivers are on the server. There is no
error loged in the event viewer either for the printers in question. There
is a laserjet 4050 that runs through a novell print que and that works
great.

The printes that are configured via direct IP printing just won't show. Any
suggestions...

Thanks

Paul

I'm guessing that the port name is something like IP_192.168.x.x. If so
change the port name to LPT1: IP_192.168.x.x and see if that works for you.
I have a remote site printing to a Konica copier and that is what I needed
to do to get TS to redirect the printer.

BTW: There's a Q article on redirecting ports that do not begin with LPT and
I applied the reg setting but it still didn't work.

Make this registry addition:

And

Use one of the newer Remote Desktop
Client versions:

5.1.2600
5.1.2600.2180
5.2.3790.0
5.2.3790.1830

Thanks.

user prints from there regular desktop?
