It may be you need to configure RDP to pass local devices through, or it may be a printer driver issue. &nbsp;And you need to ad the drivers to the print srver on the terminal server.

Hi,<br />
<br />
I have a Terminal Server running Server 2003 Standard. I have a client computer running Windows 7 with some local printers setup on it (local and networked). I am trying to allow this Windows 7 client to have its local printers mapped to its RDP session when it RDPs into my terminal server. I am having some difficulty with this. Another client running XP Pro seems to be able to map its local printers OK. The printers I have are a Ricoh MP161 and a Ricoh SP 5100N.<br />
<br />
Thanks
