Share+printers+from+local+to+RDP

=Terminal Server Connection (RDP) = If you have a local printer that is not showing up in your RDP session try the following
 * On server (Especially 2008) ensure that all users have full access/ownership of C:\Windows\System32\spool
 * ensure printer has sharing enabled on local machine
 * ensure RDP connection shares local resources (printers)
 * login to RDP machine and download/install drivers for local printers
 * add newly installed printers under an LPR or USB port perhaps? try this out more and report back...

Share a network printer across RDP
 * should be simple if we have the IP address of the printer

Troubleshooting on the RDP side:
Enable RDP session printing on the server
 * 1) Open a **Run** menu and type: //tsconfig.msc//
 * 2) This will open the RDP Session Host Configuration applet. On the right hand pane double-click **RDP-TCP**
 * 3) Click the **Client Settings** tab inside the //RDP-TCP properties window//
 * 4) Ensure that //Windows Printer// and //LPT Port// boxes are not checked in the //Disable the following// section

Add print drivers by logging into TS as admin:
If a local printer is not showing up in the RDP machine you may have to download and/or add the printers to the RDP machine itself.

 * 2) Click Settings
 * 3) Click Printers and Faxes
 * 4) Within Printers and Faxes click File and choose Server Properties
 * 5) Switch to the Drivers tab to install drivers onto the TS
