Terminal Services Default Printer changes

[fdalmoro]

I'm having trouble with a Terminal Services on Windows 2003 server.

There are about 25 users logged into this server at all times during business hours. A problem which I've googled for but have not been able to find a resolution to is with the printer. It changes the default printer for some users (not all) to a random printer each time they log in.

There are no specifics that I can think of with these users that would cause something like this.

The print spooler service does crash every once in a while (about 3 times a week) and I have to go in to restart it. This could be factor but I'm not sure how.

Thanks for any suggestions..

Fernando

Being that these users are logging in via terminal services, and I'm betting are using the Remote Desktop client, do they have the "printer" they currently use for their desktop being mapped to the TS (to check, fire up the RDC, and check the "local resources tab").
