Spend 100 bucks on a jet direct...
Seriously, What kind of thin client is it? If it's a wyse, and your
using client side auto created printers, you shouldn't expect to be able
to share it. If it's a wyse and your using the LPD function (similar to
a jetdirect), it should work even when the client isn't logged in it
will need to be powered on. Check with wyse on the firmware if this is
a problem. Im running current firmware and don't have this problem.
Seriously though this is why JetDirects were invented....

Subject: [THIN] Thin Client Printer Problem
We are running W2K Server SP2 and Metaframe 1.8 SP2.
The thin client has a local printer that is shared with other thin
clients. The problem is when a user sends a print job to the shared
printer and the thin client with the local printer is not logged in.
The print job remains in the print queue and says printing and hangs in
the queue until the spool service is stopped and restarted. Even when
the thin client logs into the system it will not start the hung job.
This is a major pain, especially at night and on weekends. Is there a
setting or something I'm missing to prevent the queue from sending until
the thin client is logged in?
thanks
