Multiple Instances of same redirected printer

Asked by hhnetworks in Windows 2003 Server, Printers by HP, Remote Desktop/Terminal Services

Tags: Microsoft, Windows 2003 Terminal Server, R2

Hi all. I administer a W2K3 Terminal Server with about 10 active sessions at any one time. Randomnly, at least once a week, I'll have multiple instances of the same printer being redirected from clients (Copy1, copy2, etc) even though all clients are limited to a single TS session. I have been unable to trace this to a particular print driver (which Im sure is where the problem is). These redirections do not disappear when the user logs off, but will create a new instance upon login. Is there a script or a cmd line that I can use to kill / delete redirected printer instances? Currently, only rebooting does the trick, but this is extremely difficult, as Ive got users in 4 different geographic areas logging in constantly. Thanks in advance for your help.Start Free Trial
