Need Third Party Software Recomendation to enable
printing under Terminal services for Win 2000 Clients.
 
If I understand your issue, you shouldn't need third part software for printing redirection. If you are using the W2K or XP TS client, all you have to do is install the specific drivers on the server. Just install a printer locally, deselect the auto find, use the driver you want, then delete the printer after it is installed. Now when a client logs in via TS, the print driver will redirect either to a local printer or to a network printer. You will have to do this for every printer that uses a different driver. If this doesn't work with the w2k client, try the XP client. I'm using the XP client on a NT box, so there aren't any issues there...

I have network printer connected by an ip address, the
tips works in any case?
 
My post would help you if you have a large client base that uses a lot of different printers. Following my post would let your 'users' connect to the TS and have the printers they have mapped on their local PC show up as printers on the TS....
