Default Re: Printer redirect question


If you are trying to use the host printer (XP Pro) through a RDC session,
you must have the
host printer driver (not software) installed on the client (remote) computer
which by your own admission is the XP Home computer. I would have the
drivers in the C:\Windows\System32\Drivers\PRINTER DRIVER - that which you
name which is the printer name folder.
