HI all,

I installed a Brother printer in office(hereafter I call PC O), and now I am
remotely connecting back to my home(hereafter I call it PC H).

On PC O, the printer was installed in a local LAN peer-to-peer printing
mode, using LPR protocol.

The remote desktop does not recognize this printer at all - on the PC H,
when I want to print, actually I want it to print to this Brother printer on
PC O. But it never had this option in the scroll-down list of the printer
list.

Is there a way I can let the remote PC H know that it should print via PC O
to the Brother printer in my office?

What's wrong with remote desktop?

Do I need to install a virtual network printer on PC H, in order to use it
to print to Brother printer in office? Since it was installed as
peer-to-peer printing using LPR protocol, I am not sure how to install a
printer driver on PC H for this Brother printer in my office...

Any ideas?

Thanks a lot

Have you enabled 'connect to client printers' in the Remote Desktop
client options (mstsc.exe 'Options>>") on PC O?

Printing to an LPR printer from a Remote desktop guest is a little tricky.

Firstly, install the printer driver as a non-plug and play local printer on
the host (PC H).

On the guest (PC O) this is what you need to do (I'm assuming the printer
driver is already installed on this guest PC) :
- In printer properties on the guest Share the printer and assign a share
name. (This seems counter intuitive but is required to set up printer
pooling.)
- Run ipconfig and note the guest PC's IP address.
NOTE - You should NOT be connected to RD at this point. Also, it
would be best to assign this PC a static address instead and use that.
- In a command prompt run >net use lpt3 \\xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx\printer-sharename
/persistent:yes
(This could have been lpt 1 or 2 alternatively.)
- Check printer pooling and select lpt3 as well as the TCP/IP port (which I
assume is presently selected) for the ports.

simplest solution that I have found is a free service called
"printer anywhere"

http://www.printeranywhere.com/

Forget about the set up and protocol just download the program to each
computer that has a printer. And you can send secured documents
across the web to be printed on that other printer. I use it to send
documents all over the world.

Wow, finally some expert in both Remote Desktop and Printer Setup areas
replied me with detailed instruction.

Thank you so much GTS.

But I am a little bit horrified at these steps and they look hard.

Before I try these steps, may I ask will it be easier if I install the
printer driver PC O (the PC in my office, the one I am using most of time,
and the client for using RDP client to connect to the server at PC H (my
home PC)) to be network shared printer?

In fact, here is the situation at my office:

I have a LAN connection, and I've put up a wireless wouter(linksys), so now
there is a room-socket with incoming LAN connection, and I connect that
socket with the linksys wireless router, and now I have the wireless
capability and 4 Ethernet connections from that wireless router.

I normally use one laptop in my office and I typically use Wireless. There
are other PCs but they are slow and noisy and power-consuming so they are no
longer used here.

I've connected the printer to the wireless router using 1 of its 4 Ethernet
connections.

My laplop is communicating with the wireless router wirelessly.

When I installed the Brother's printer HL5250DN, it had several options:

1. Brother Peer-to-peer Network printing(printing directly to the printer
over the network)

2. Network shared printer(all jobs are sent to the queue on a central
server)

When I installed the driver on the PC O laptop, I have no idea about what's
the difference between the above two options, so I choose the first one:
peer-to-peer printing,

Then it has two options: LPR(recommended, set by node) and Netbios.

Again I have no idea so I choose the first one.

That's why it is LPR now. And it worked. I can successfully print from my PC
O locally to that printer.

------------------------

Now my question is: if I choose NetBios, or Network Shared printer, will
they make my life easier for making the RDP work with the printer?

Thanks a lot!

The printer is connected to the wireless router's local Ethernet socket; the
PC O is connecting with the router wirelessly; the incoming LAN connection
is connected to the wireless router through the Internet socket.

The fact that you set the office printer up as peer-to-peer LPR is fine.
The instructions I gave address exactly that configuration.

If I understand you correctly, the laptop is the only workstation connecting
you your router at the office. If that's the case and you find it too
confusing, forget about assigning it a static address for now. It's DHCP
assigned address isn't likely to change which was the concern.

- To install the Brother printer driver at home bring the printer CD home or
download the driver from Brother. (If the CD runs a setup program rather
than allowing just pointing to the driver, you may be better off to download
it.) In Printers and Faxes run Add Printer. Specify local printer
attached to this computer and uncheck Automatically detect and Install
....... Choose LPT1 as the port, ...Have disk ... point to the driver
location... In other words, you install it as if it were physically
connected to that computer except that you prevent plug and play detection.
- At the office follow the steps in my initial post - Share the printer on
the laptop, determine the laptops IP address with ipconfig, and run the net
use command as specified.

Maybe this will be clearer with a little explanation. If the office printer
were connected directly to the office PC (instead of connecting by Ethernet
to your router) Remote Desktop printing would work solely by virtue of
having a matching driver on both computers. It would send the print stream
to the local LPT or USB port. Since the printer is connected to your office
network instead, what we are doing is using your office PC to intercept the
print traffic and reroute it through your network. This is done by the
Printer Pooling facility in Windows XP whereby, in this case, the print data
stream is captured to the LPT port and forwarded to the printer through your
network.

I hope that helps.

In your later message, you've used lpt3, should these be the same?

Also, are you running this command on PC H, or PC O? If you run this on PC
O, then the PC O is already connected to the printer through the wireless
router, I am not sure why do you need to do this on PC O; if it is on PC H,
then the IP address of the PC H (after using the wireless router) is a DHCP
one assigned by the wirelss router, which is 192.168.1.107, which is not
accessible by the PC H at all, since it is inside the office wireless
router...

Either on PC H or PC O, there is no way to select "lpt3 and TCP/IP port"
together, whenever I select lpt3, the TCP/IP port will be unchecked...

The PC H still prints to its physical local printer, which is actually
non-existent, so it still could not print at all...

You're asking me to repeat things I already explained, you're mixing up
answers I gave to 2 different questions, and you're not following the
instructions (e.g. enabling printer pooling so you can select multiple
ports). All the information you need is in my two prior posts.
I mean no disrespect, but I think maybe you need to bring in some qualified
local assistance to set this up for you.

You need to do two things to make this work, assuming that your
Brother printer driver software is TS-compatible:

1.) Use Remote Desktop Client version 5.2.3790.0 or later on
your office PC.

- Version 5.2.3790.x can be found on a 2003 server in the
following folder:

C:\WINDOWS\system32\clients\tsclient\win32\

- You can download version 6.0.6000.16386 here:

http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...f-d4f18c8f5df9

2.) Install the Brother printer driver software on your home PC.
You can do this by "pretending" that the Brother is attached to the
computer and running through the Add Printer wizard, making sure
to uncheck "Automatically detect and install my Plug and Play Printer".
Do *not* print a test page, this is unnecessary and will not work.
Also, the local port you select is irrelevent, so simply choose the
default LPT1.

After you have successfully completed the wizard, delete the
Brother printer you just installed--the necessary driver software
will remain.

Next time you connect to your home PC from your Office PC, your
Brother printer will automatically show up as an option. It will be
named something similar to "Brother HL-2040 (from COMPUTER)".

The technique GTS describes (sharing, pooling, etc.) was a
workaround for an older version of the client, but has not been
necessary for years.
