Re: Inactive printer port...

<Re-sending the reply to an earlier post>

Hi,

The inactive TS ports will remain as long as the server is up. Basically, they will be re-used when another session comes up.
When a session disconnects/logs off, only the mapping between the session's printers and ports will be removed, but the ports will be retained.

Could you explain in more detail about the below query: "If the user is logging on again he can't use his session printer" ?
Are the printers not visible in Control Panel on the new session ? If yes, are there any event logs on printer redirection on that session ?

I am having strange problems,

When a user is logging off, the inactive ts printer ports remain.

If the user is logging on again he can't use his session printer.

Anyone seen this behaviour before?, and how to fix this?
