Printing to home HP Officejet 7310 All-In-One via RDP

[Duncour]

My company's sattelite office is currently working through RDP access to our servers in our main office and we have a local print server hooked up in the sattelite office. When I am in RDP access, my local OfficeJet is not showing up on my list nor will it give me the option to add a local printer. It will only search the active directory.

I checked the port and it is using a USB port so I don't think it's a redirection problem that I have found previously (I have made the regedit for that anyways and that didn't work). I can log onto the administrator account and it will let me add a local printer, but not under my personal account. If there's not a solution to this, how can I get the local printer added to my user account from the administrator account? It's as if I don't have the rights to add it or something, but my personal user account has all the privilages to do anything so I don't know what's up. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Duncour,
Did you find a solution to this? We are experiencing the same problem.

Thanks.

I can tell you that in RDP settings make sure the printer is checked so it can show as a session printer. I can also say from experience that laser printers work best in session printing and anything else it is a hit or miss. I use terminal service and any time I have user go off site that is how they print.
As for installing the printer on a server the pc needs to be part of the domain and then you would share it. On the server you would go to ad a printer and create a local port \\pc name\printer name
Then you can install on the server.
