Environment:
Windows 2000 Server w/ Terminal Server in application serving mode, multiple windows 98 clients using the client provided.

Problem:
There is a diversity of printers on the network, is there a universal (free or cheap) printer driver that we can use?

Please help!?
 
That depends on the priners you are using. If the TS client is not seeing their default printer after login, you can add the printer driver for their default printer; go here to add... Start>Settings>Printers then click File>Server Properties> click on Drivers>Add this is also where you add drivers for multiple operating systems. If you have HP printers, you can download "Bundled Drivers" to support 2000, ME, 98, and 95.
It is important to know that the client's printer driver must match the listed printers on the Terminal Server. If one is not listed on the TS, then you must install the MFGR's printer driver.
Hope this helps!!
