Re: Printers local to TS not visible to non-admin users

Patrick,

Thank you for the quick response.

How would I update the Default User profile so that all new remote users get
the TS network printers installed? I am not sure what you mean by, "you set
up the printers using local TCPIP Ports." On the TS itself, those printers
are installed with local TCP/IP ports. Is that what you meant?

One printer is a Canon iR7200 on a "Standard TCP/IP Port" and the other one
is an HP LJ 4050 on a "PrintServer Port."

Network printers are specific to the user profile, so if they were created
in
the administrator's profile, they would not appear in other's profile
unless
you used this profile to update the Default User Profile, or you setup the
printers using local TCPIP Ports.

You can connect the network printers using logon script:

Hello!

I have a 2003 TS. When I log in as the administrator, I can see the
printers
that are attached to the TS (Canon and HP network printers), as well as
my
own HP LJ 1200 (via mapping to an HP 2000).

When a non-admin user logs into the TS, he only sees the Microsoft Office
Document Image printer and an Amyuni PDF printer, but not the two
networked
printers.

I used a GPO to lock down the TS per the 2003 TS lockdown white paper,
but I
do not remember any setting for printers that are local to the TS to
prevent
them from being seen from remote sessions.

Is this normal behavior? If so, how can I make the two network printer on
the TS LAN accessible to users who log into the TS remotely?

Thank you for your time!
