Windows Server Forum / Windows 2000 / Terminal Services / September 2004Multiple Printer Sessions
Any help with this is very much appreciated We have a situation where the terminal server creates multiple sessions for printer for a single user logged on. They only have one printer installed and the printer location shows only one printer registered. But once they log on to the terminal server, multiple sessions gets created (some times with 3 or 4 sessions id's, but the user is only logged in once). This is causing the spooler service to stop. Has anyone faced this issue? Thanks in advance.  SignatureSUNIL 3rd party printer drivers installed on the terminal server are known to cause strange problems, killing the printer spooler service or BSOD. Does this problem occur if you map this printer to a built-in driver via user defined inf file? http://www.workthin.com/tsp.htm Patrick Rouse Microsoft MVP - Terminal Server http://www.workthin.com > Any help with this is very much appreciated > > We have a situation where the terminal server creates multiple sessions for printer for a single user logged on.

There is a printer mapping setup on the terminal server that maps most of these DeskJet printer to a standard "HP DeskJet 550C" which is recommendation that came from HP. There are some users who use a networked printer in their location, but 95% have a printer attached to their computers.

I just looked at your origianl post again. Are you sure users aren't seeing other user's printers (from different session numbers)? This is usually because users are members of the Adminisatrator's group. > Thanks for the reply. > There are various printers that users use, but all are HP printers.

But as an administrator I see 3 printer sessions for the same location and they are only logged in once on the TS manager and have only one printer at the site.
