Hello Folks;

I know that there is a couple of treads of this stuff, but this situation is really puzzeling. I have done everything that I can possibly do to get remote clients to print locally from Terminal services. I have all the settings that I need to have and everytime a client logs in there is NO local printer in the TS printer folder. I have even manually installed a printer from a microsoft tech site and still I get nothing. Am I missing something. Is there an active directory setting that I need to change. Should DNS be installed or not. I am getting a little fustrated with this and can use all the help I can get.

Thanks

P.S. Has anyone run into a permissions issue with TS and MS Office not working unless you are a Member of the ADMIN. Once again thanks.
 
There is a group policy that can be set to not allow local printers to be used in terminal service sessions, but this is diabled by default. Check the system event log for Terminal Sevices errors and let me know what you see.
