Automatic Printer redirection:
I want to use my printer at home on my local computer to print applications when connected to my Remote Computer at work. Do I need to install the driver on my Server at work or my workstation at work. And is this all I need to do.
Manual Redirection:
Also, I noticed XP Help said I could not use manual redirection if local printer at home used a USB port...is there another way to manually use printer while connected to USB port?
Thanks for Help in Advance.
 
Dominique,

Try this out

Printers That Use Ports That Do Not Begin With COM, LPT, or USB Are Not
Redirected in a Remote Desktop or Terminal Services Session
