It's a Konica 7060 with the IP302 print controller. The driver for it
is native in Server 2003. It's just that the client workstation is
using it as a network printer, and it seemed like everything I found
about network printing on the Microsoft KB led me to believe that was
not supported on the TS 2003. I will definitely download that updated
RDP client and give it a go.
Thanks again for sharing your knowledge, it's very much appreciated...
