Can anybody tell me if I can set up my clients local printers when using terminal server over the internet?

I'm connecting to my windows 2000 server using terminal server client over a DSL line, but my local printer dosen,t appear in my session. I've consulted the logs but there are no failed intents to install my printer. On my local server it's working just fine. I'd be gratefull if somebody could tell me what I need or what am I doing wrong.
 
When you say local printer, do you mean the one next to you or the one your ts'ing into? Are you printing TCP/IP? Glen A. Johnson

I mean the printer hooked on the 'client' pc.
 
If you have the printer set up using tcp/ip, and you ts into the client and ping the printer? Glen A. Johnson
