Chapter 5. Printer Features
The same printer driver is used on the Windows Terminal Servers for all printers regardless of model.
This limits the amount of settings a user can modify when printing. For example, selecting a different
paper tray than the default one is not possible. If these limitations are a problem, defining printer queues
manually as described above may be an option.
5.6.1. Configuration
The automatic redirection of printers to Windows Terminal Servers is enabled by default, but can be
disabled by setting /appservergroups/rdp/<appgroup>/redirect_printers to false.
5.6.2. Persistent Printer Settings
If a user modifies the printer settings for a redirected printer on a Windows Terminal Server, the changes
are written to a file named ~/.rdesktop/rdpdr/<printername>/AutoPrinterCacheData.
If changes to printer setttings should be made for all printers, login to the WTS, make the changes, then
wait a few minutes, log out, then copy the generated
~/.rdesktop/rdpdr/<printername>/AutoPrinterCacheData to
/opt/thinlinc/etc/rdpdr/<printername>. This must be done for all printers.
The settings file will now be copied to user home directories when tl-run-rdesktop is run. Existing files
will not be overwritten, so if printer settings need to be changed, existing files in user home directories
must be removed.
