What is the operating system on the remote user's machines?<br />
<br />
Make sure Windows 10 Auto Default Printer Select is disabled and the user's default printer is set correctly afterwards.<br />
<br />
Make sure the printer driver is identical on both source and destination machine.<br />
Make sure the printer driver is set to ISOLATED in Print Management on all RDS Session Hosts.<br />
Make sure the printer is not Host-Based. It needs at the minimum a PCL5 engine on-board.

Hello Phillip, &nbsp;thx for your answer. <br />
<br />
OS are W10, W7 and XP. Mostly W10. But the Problem is on all users. <br />
<br />
Whats do you mean with the same drivers? &nbsp;Printers can't use the same driver on XP and W2016... &nbsp;Ir am i wrong? <br />
<br />
I don't know how to set a printer in ISOLATED mode. Can you explain this a little more, could work. <br />
<br />
How I can know about my printers are &quot;not host&quot;? <br />
<br />
I have brother mfc 5700dw, mfc 2700dn and thermal EPSON TM-T88iv and T88vi<br />
<br />
<br />
Thx a lot.

<div>
When logged on as a user head into Devices &amp;&nbsp;Printers and bring up the properties of a redirected printer. On the Advanced tab what does the driver say? EasyPrint or the manufacturer's printer driver?
</div>


<div>
Okay, are the names identical for both remote and RDSH? <br />
<br />
And by that I mean, that there cannot be any differences at all. There was a time where HP had some &quot;PCL 6&quot; and others &quot;PCL &nbsp;6&quot; and still others &quot;PCL&quot; with the 6 missing depending on the operating system the driver was for.<br />
<br />
That lead to a lot of grief.<br />
<br />
I suggest flipping the EasyPrint Driver to ON for a test user. Microsoft made some huge improvements in Server 2016.

Hello,<br />
<br />
I have a server with W2k16 running in RDS mode. To this server are connected 9 RDS user.<br />
<br />
The main problem is the RDS client map printer from local computer to RDS enviorement, but for some reason, when a user ends session, and start session again, the default printers doen`t work.<br />
<br />
It seems the system take an inactive TSport for the printer. i must configure the printers every time the user start session.<br />
<br />
Is there any kind of solution here?<br />
<br />
<br />
Thx.

RDS printer configuration

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.

Printers and Scanners

The Microsoft Server topic includes all of the legacy versions of the operating system, including the Windows NT 3.1, NT 3.5, NT 4.0 and Windows 2000 and Windows Home Server versions.

Microsoft Server OS

Remote access may refer to the connection to a data-processing system from a remote location, for example through a virtual private network remote desktop software, terminal emulation, or the activation of features of a business telephone system from outside the business's premises.

Remote Access

Windows Server 2016 is the successor to Windows Server 2012 R2. Built upon the same core code as Windows 10, Windows Server 2016 brings enhancements in security, servicing, and connectivity. A particular focus on this release was hybrid-cloud scenarios, and has close ties to Azure and other Microsoft cloud initiatives. This does not detract from the many improvements that are available for on-premises-only deployments

Windows Server 2016 comes in Datacenter, Standard, and Essentials editions, and for servicing, has adopted windows 10's cumulative model. The new nano-server install is designed to be remotely managed and is designed to be kept current through continuous feature updates. The full GUI install operates similarly to windows 10's "Long Term Servicing Branch" (LTSB) model with cumulative security updates.

Windows Server 2016 has also shifted from a per-processor-and-CAL licensing model to a per-core-and CAL licensing model. This brings Windows Server's licensing more in line with Microsoft's other products and makes hybrid-cloud license planning easier as well.

Windows Server 2016

The Windows operating systems have distinct methodologies for designing and implementing networks, and have specific systems to accomplish various networking processes, such as Exchange for email, Sharepoint for shared files and programs, and IIS for delivery of web pages. Microsoft also produces server technologies for networked database use, security and virtualization.

Windows Networking

Networking hardware includes the physical devices facilitating the use of a computer network. Typically, networking hardware includes gateways, routers, network bridges, modems, wireless access points, networking cables, line drivers, switches, hubs, and repeaters. But it also includes hybrid network devices such as multilayer switches, protocol converters, bridge routers, proxy servers, firewalls, network address translators, multiplexers, network interface controllers, wireless network interface controllers, ISDN terminal adapters and other related hardware.
