Therminal Services and Add Printer Issue

[woodlandsprep]

Our network is 2003 Windows Server, when users log onto a desktop within the domain, they can browse to the print server and add a printer to that local desktop. if they log onto our terminal server ( which was recently rebuilt) they can not add printer onto their terminal serve session. It's probably an easy fix but where is this option?

thanks in advance

Couple of places to check. First, its probably because you dont have the driver installed on the TS. Need to install the drivers before RDP sessions will dynamically map the printer. You would have to install the driver for each different printer that could attach. Second, it could be disallowed in GP or in the RDP-TCP connector on the TS. Third, it could be unchecked on the RDC in the connection properties on the client side.

It was something so simple as the drivers, thanks for the heads up roadkill!
