Without creating a Network Printer Server how do I go by allowing clients the ability to print with my Terminal Server?

Windows Server 2003 Std with SP2 in what is called user Terminal Services Mode


I am being told from a client that I need to allow a reroute to her 'local printer connection' (via RDP)


I do not understand this, and I have searched Google as well as MS, and I am coming up with install the TSP redirect Wizard and such, or have the user muck with their registry settings, etc....


Need some help really bad! Any ideas?
 
I am now wondering if any user can set up redirect printing while Terminal Services is in User Mode

We have it working just fine but we did have to do the aforementioned registry modification on each of our remote users' computers when they were using a USB printer.

Hope this helps.

Please help us help you. Read Tek-Tips posting polices before posting.
 
I cannot do that registry mod, so it sounds as if I am screwed.

No one at this time is looking to use USB functions.
 
I was able to deal with this issue. I forgot to literally install each and every printer on my Terminal Server. You can close this thread.
