Hi Garrt!

Have you enabled local printer use in RDC?

Look for it in RDC Options --> Local Resources. You'll need to do this
before you make any connection to the Terminal Server.

Hope this helps! bill

Sounds like the same problem I am having. Windows machines seem to
recognize the printer is connected and install it. Macs don't seem to
do that. We need to find out how to make it happen.

Garry,

Thanks for your post. Mac RDC printer redirection supports PostScript
printers but not inkjet or other non-PostScript printers. There is no
workaround for this limitation, to my knowledge.
