DOCUMENT:Q186530 11-DEC-2001 [winnt] TITLE :Printing to Local Printer on Tektronix Windows-Based Terminal PRODUCT :Microsoft Windows NT PROD/VER:WinNT:4.0 OPER/SYS: KEYWORDS: ====================================================================== ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The information in this article applies to: - Microsoft Windows NT Server version 4.0, Terminal Server Edition ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SUMMARY ======= Typically, the RDP client does not support local devices, such as printers. However, aside from using Citrix's ICA client to gain this functionality, some manufacturers are building in services to allow local printing on their RPD devices. For instance, the Tektronix WBT supports Line Printer Daemon (LPD) as a separate process on the device. Any device that supports Line Printer Remote (LPR) (including Windows Terminal Server or Windows NT Server) can print to this. This means that administrators can set up a print queue on Terminal Server or Windows NT Server pointing to the LPD on the Tektronix WBT. A user can connect from the Tektronix device to the LPR queue and print to the local printer.
