My remote desktop client is trying to print to their local printer which w2k
server has setup a redirect print queue, but whenever a print job is sent to
the RDP printer queue it responds with a printer error message. What is
missing?

Do you get any errors in the event log?

no error messages in event viewer. just a printer folders message saying
"there was an error when printing job......." to TS001, do you want to retry
or cancel.

I have the same issue - jobs go in to queue fine and then just say "error -
printing". It doesn't happen for everyone - has tried updated drivers without
any luck

Hi Guys and Girls

Some Printer drivers do not like the TS environment.  Some printer
vendors do provide specific drivers (Mini Drivers) for use in the TS
environment.   Could this be your problem ?

Check with your vendor, a W2K Driver will work fine on the W2K server,
but may have a problem when you use it in TS.

I have found this to be the case specifically in the MFP market.

Dear all,
              All my client CANNOT print redirect to their local printer
(LPT1) through my W2k SP4 Print Server(Local port).

Error fr Print Server: "there was an error when printing job......." to
//pcname/sharedprintername, do you want to retry or cancel:
              I tried reinstall with latest driver for printer. Test print
fr Print Server to local printer - ok. But when redirect fr other Pc to local
printer through Print Server is not ok. Nothing comes out fr my printer. When
I replace that Print Server with a clean install Print Server, everything is
ok.              
             Before that my Print Server infected by Virus Win32.Polip. I
did clean up the server, update latest virus definition, Live update Windows
Patches, make full scan no virus found.

             Any one knows how to solve this printing problem without
migrating my Print server or formating it?

Thank You
