Hey guys, I'm stumped here. We have 40 users connecting to our terminal server (on w2k3). Two users are conencted to the same network printer YET one user can print fast and can print bar code fonts while another user prints slower and it spits out weird characters instead of bar codes. How can this be? It is the same terminal server computer and same network printer (networked on their end so it is on a TS port for them).
 
networked on their end so it is on a TS port for them

What does this mean? The printer is local to the user? Or, the printer is connected to the network?
 
The printer is local to that user... so on their end, it is their local network printer. When they connect to us it is on a TS port for them. I think I resolved it though. It seems like once I had them uninstall the local printer drivers and reinstall it, it worked fine.
