I'm not sure I fully grasp your intended meaning. The printer is of a type
that I do not have at the office, so an exact replication of the user's
scenario is not possible. I can however successfully attach the printer to
my local machine TS LPT port (it is a Win2K box behind the PIX firewall).
Does that address your suggestion, or did I miss the boat?
The problem with this user begins much earlier that drivers - her TS mapped
local COM and LPT ports are not there, as if she had none.
btw - thank you for your interest and reply.

Make sure the printer can be mapped. If the printer is unknown or not being
mapped you would see this behavior as well as an error in the event log of
the ts.
