Problem with redirecting printers when using remote desktop
I connect to my win 2003 small business server using remote desktop from my vista pc. I am unable to redirect/ connect the local printers to my remote desktop session. I get onlt the fax and xps printer, but not my ink jet printer. Can anyone give me some advice?

Hi Asle, Let me know the model of involved printers and the port types youre using to connect them to local computer. Those are important factors for troubleshooting this kind of issues. The following KB article may help you troubleshoot related issue in some interfaces: (KB302361) Printers That Use Ports That Do Not Begin With COM, LPT, or USB Are Not Redirected in a Remote Desktop or Terminal Services Session http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;302361 Hope this helps!
