HI,
recently I configured a server with Windows 2008 Server R2. On this server I installed Remote Desktop Services. I have a problem with printer redirection with MS Windows Clients (Windows 7 and Windows 8). I tried with different printers Samsung, Brother and
Sharp. It's not a problem of configuration because all MAC OSX Client can print with their printers on the Remote Desktop Connection using printer redirection. I tried the same printer, a Brother DCP-7065DN using a MAC OSX Computer and a MS Windows Computer:
with MAC OSX Computer printer redirection works, with MS Windows Computer doesn't.
I verified:
- Remote Desktop Session Host Configuration and in Client Settings the option Disable Windows Printer in not flagged
- in Local Group Policy Editor: Do not allow client printer redirection is not configured
- in Local Group Policy Editor: Use Remote Desktop Easy Printer driver first: i tried with all options but it doesn't work I verified
- in Computer Management in Device Manager that Remote Desktop Device Redirector Bus in working
- On the MS Windows Client in the Remote Desktop Connection Property Printer Redirection is active and I can see the printer redirected on the server
If I give a print command with notepad on the remote desktop session on the server, I can see that the Server spooler is managing the print job but the client spooler doesn't receive anything.
What could be the problem? Is there a way to enable logs on the server to understand the flow of the data between Server and Client?
Thanks
