Windows 10: Printer Redirections Windows Desktop App

When is printer redirections going to be able to work within the Microsoft Remote Desktop App?

Windows 10 is not redirecting my printer during a remote desktop session

First thank you for your response.

• Both systems (local and remote) have the same latest printer driver downloaded from the manufacturer.
• When I mentioned that the issue was resolve on previous opportunities, I was referring to another occasion with a different printer and other versions of Windows and Hardware, but with a similar redirection problem.

Its Remote Desktop that sensitive to different driver version on each side, I was always with the impression that the local system will share its printer drivers (provided that the printer local resource is checked) to the remote system when the local printer
was not configured on the remote system. In my case, my local printer was not configured on the remote system, and the redirection never worked, that when I decide to create a dummy printer on the remote system with the same drivers, but it didn'y worked either.

Hope this information helps you have a better picture of the scenario.

Yours,

Juan Santaella

 

RDS Printer Question

I'm not 100% sure this will solve your problem but it may help. The freeware app called RedirectAllPrinters. I never had a use for it but I knew of it because I used a bunch of this guys freeware apps. It may just do exactly what easy share is already doing but just thought I'd point you it's direction. Just follow the link then go to his download page. His checkdisk app is great when you have to check multiple offline drives through a dock or usb adapter and the Reset TCP/IP app is a regular in my toolkit.

Windows 10 is not redirecting my printer during a remote desktop session

We try a separate connection from another Windows 7 Local System that have a Brother Printer directly attached to it via USB to the remote system using the remote desktop software, but regardless, remote desktop did not redirect the printer to the local
directly connect Brother printer.
