Remote Desktop Easy Print Driver Server 2008 R2
First published on CloudBlogs on Sep, 28 2009
What'due south new in Windows 7?
Easy Print Redirection was bachelor for Windows Server 2008 TS only and it was non bachelor when connecting to computers running Windows Vista. Now it will also exist available when connecting to Ultimate/Enterprise editions of Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2 Remote Desktop Session Host servers. In add-on, we're happy to announce that with Win7 / WS08 R2, Easy Print no longer has a dependency on .Internet Framework -- a common request from customers that didn't want to install .Net on all clients from which they wanted to print. The XPS format to GDI conversion was washed via .Cyberspace Framework before, but for Win7 / WS08 R2 the operating system does this conversion itself.
For the full documentation most how Easy Print works, refer to this three-part blog :

| Windows Server 2008 R2 | Server : (3) | Server : (4) |
(1) RDC half dozen.one or above (Windows XP with Service Pack 3 and above includes this).
(two) Even if RDC six.ane or above is used, the user must install a supported version of .Net Framework separately . Microsoft .Cyberspace Framework three.5 (which includes .NET Framework 3.0 SP1) tin can exist downloaded from the Microsoft Download Center ( http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=109422 ).

- If the client printers are not redirected as Easy Print:
- Offset check the RDP version on the RDP client calculator as well as the .Internet framework version with respect to the operating organisation used (as explained above). As well verify that the RD Session Host / Last Server function is installed if the host computer is running Windows Server 2008 R2 or Windows Server 2008.
- Group Policy must exist correctly set to enable Like shooting fish in a barrel Print on the Server. The policy location is "Computer Configuration -> Administrative templates -Windows Components -> Remote Desktop Services > Remote Desktop Session Host -> Printer Redirection". The setting "Use Remote Desktop Easy Print printer driver offset" must be set to "Enabled" for Easy Print redirection, and it has to be "Disabled" for Legacy Print. For "Not configured", Like shooting fish in a barrel Print is chosen past default.
- Check The Remote Desktop Configuration Tool (tsconfig.msc) settings to ensure that the "Windows Printer" choice is not disabled (it is not disabled past default).
- Make sure that the "Printers" check box in the client (mstsc.exe) window on the "Local Resource" tab is checked. The corresponding setting in the associated RDP file is "redirectprinters:i:ane".
- Ensure that the spooler service is running on both the RDP Client & Server.
Windows Server 2008 added the ability for an Admin to configure spooler security and Windows seven/Windows Server 2008 R2 adds the UI for this. Therefore, it would exist possible to alter the RDP server'southward spooler security descriptor which might forestall RDP client printers from being redirected on the session. The spooler security descriptor must contain the "AU" (Authenticated User) ACL (Access Control Listing) which allows whatsoever authenticated user to open the spooler service for reading operations. Therefore, if that ACL is missing from the spooler security descriptor , it must be added like the example below using the command prompt (elevated).
> sc sdshow spooler
D:(A;;CCDCLCSWRPWPDTLOCRSDRCWDWO;;;BA)(A;;CCLCSWRPWPDTLOCRRC;;;SY)
> sc sdset spooler D: (A;;CCLCSWLOCRRC;;;AU) (A;;CCDCLCSWRPWPDTLOCRSD
RCWDWO;;;BA)(A;;CCLCSWRPWPDTLOCRRC;;;SY)
[SC] SetServiceObjectSecurity SUCCESS - If you connect over RD Gateway, ensure that the policy that disables printer redirection is turned off.
- If everything listed so far is right and yous even so have a redirection trouble, check the upshot logs.

The default value for this is twenty printers per session. - If Piece of cake Print is unable to print on a domain controller.
