I have a remote office that authenticates to the main office via a vpn. At the remote location I have a printer that is connected to computer A. When you go in to the Term session I can print to this printer. A the remote location I also have computers B,C,D. that I would like to be able to print to the local printer at station A. I want to be able to print in session and out of the session by sharing the printer.
Does any one have a solution
 
Assuming your PC's in the remote office are connected on a network (it might seem like a daft assumption but I once spent ages trying to explain to someone over the phone how to get a similar thing going where there wasn't one :) )

Put the printer on an HP Jet Direct Port and install the software on each client.

A,B,C and D will be able to print to it locally and the main office should be able to connect as well as long as you remember to set the gateway on the Jet Direct box.
