OK, please bear with me on this, I am sort of new to this stuff, or at least that is what I tell myself. So I ran it in a CMD window on the terminal, with error 87. so on an outside shot I ran it on the server, error 87. I went to the Internet and found: net use lpt1: /d net use lpt1: \\tsclient\lpt1 <file:///\\tsclient\lpt1> When I run the first line it says lpt1 was deleted successfully But when I run line 2, I now get... System error 85 has occurred. The local device name is already in use. And if I try to run line 1 again... The network connection could not be found. Any ideas?

Terminal Server. You could add something like... net use lpt1 \\client\lpt1 <file:///\\client\lpt1> : ..into the usrlogon.cmd script located in the %SystemRoot%\System32 folder on every Terminal/Citrix server. That will take care of the redirection. Cheers, Jeremy.

Terminal Server. Well, I had a thought, something about port redirection... So I plugged another label printer directly into the server, and guess what, my print jobs come out there !?! I am guessing that it is just some simple flip of a switch to make that stop. Any ideas on where one might find that switch? J Thank You ~Doug Rooney Sonoma Tilemakers IT Manager 7750 Bell Rd.

Terminal Server. OK, so I have now completely rebuilt this server, ground up, I checked policies, I checked connections I have banged my head diligently. The Admin part is fine, it is just the flipping printer issue, I have tried everything I can think of and all the suggestions, nothing, no printing, though it seems to think it is printing fine. But I log out of TS-3 and back into TS-2, everything works just great, prints and everything. That tells me #1, it is not the printer, #2, it is not the terminal. Both servers are in an OU called Terminals, one works, one does not. The only difference is, the old server is a P4 w/2GB RAM, the new one is Athlon 64 w/4GB RAM. Both are Windows server 2003 with every available update, patch and service pack installed. I am logging in as Administrator on the console, and it will not print to the Zebra TLP2844 printer that is connected via parallel cable directly to the Wyse 3150SE thin client terminal running MS WinCE 5.00.

Is it a serial one? You may need to do something like a mode command to redirect lpt1: to com1: You may also need to be certain that you are allowing com/lpt in the Terminal services configuration tool rdp/ica port settings as well as in the users profiles.

Well I have several issues, #1, I log directly into the machine as Administrator, yet I only have the choice to log out, not restart or shutdown?!? #2, When I log in as a user, I cannot add a printer, if I add it as Administrator, the user cannot use it properly. These 2 are the current BIG issues. Any thoughts? Thank You ~Doug Rooney Sonoma Tilemakers IT Manager 7750 Bell Rd.
