Archived from groups: microsoft>public>windowsxp>work_remotely (more info?)

Hello,

I'm having a problem with printing to my locally defined printers when
using Remote Desktop to access remote systems. I have 2 computers on
which I've recently installed XP,SP1; both have the same problem. I have

a third computer that I can't remember how I had installed XP, I'm not
having any printing problems on this machine when using Remote Desktop.

The locally defined printers on all 3 computers is a network printer, set
up the same way. Looking at the printer properties, it would appear that
the files making up the driver for the printers are all the same version.
I've made absolutly sure that I do have "Printers" checked on the Local
Resources tab of Remote Desktop when connecting to the servers.

On the machines that I'm having a problem, upon trying to connect to a
server I get the "Remote Desktop Connection Security Warning" box. This
box warns me of the local devices that will be made available -- but only
"Disk drives" are listed. This leads me to believe that I'm not making my

printers available, and thus the problem is on the 2 machines instead of
servers...

Any ideas on how to fix the 2 recently installed XP machines???

Thanks,
Reece
