What method are you using on the terminal server end to generate the print files? Do you have individual drivers installed on the TS for each printer, or are you using some sort of universal print driver software?

We operate a remote Terminal Server and print locally to two offsite locations. &nbsp;Initially all print functions operated normally. &nbsp;Then the one location with a sole Xerox printer was unable to directly print documents. &nbsp;Documents would print formatting details but no text. &nbsp;So an invoice would print with line boarders, but no text.<br />
<br />
Then today our second location started experiencing the same problem. &nbsp;First with one printer, then with another printer.<br />
<br />
Any idea what is going on here?

Terminal Server Printing - Missing Text

Windows Server 2003 was based on Windows XP and was released in four editions: Web, Standard, Enterprise and Datacenter. It also had derivative versions for clusters, storage and Microsoft’s Small Business Server. Important upgrades included integrating Internet Information Services (IIS), improvements to Active Directory (AD) and Group Policy (GP), and the migration to Automated System Recovery (ASR).

Windows Server 2003

A printer is a peripheral which makes a persistent human readable representation of graphics or text on paper or similar physical media. Traditional printers are being used more for special purposes, like printing photographs or artwork, and are no longer a must-have peripheral; 3D printing has become an area of intense interest, allowing the creation of physical objects. An image scanner is a device that optically scans images, printed text, handwriting, or an object, and converts it to a digital image. Hand-held scanners, where the device is moved by hand, have evolved from text scanning "wands" to 3D scanners used for industrial design, reverse engineering, test and measurement, orthotics, gaming and other applications.
