If these are all on the same local network you share this printer from the
workstation it's connscted to, then install it as a local printer on the TS,
so it's available no matter who's logged on. This way the user who's
computer it's connected to doesn't have to be logged on to have its' printer
available to the other user.
Another option is to just share the printer, then have the other user logon
and add the printer in their session as a network printer.
