    Rename Client Printer

    Locked

    by mdarmody ·

    I have a program that requires the client printer to have a specific driver name in order to print to it. When the users logon to Terminal Services in Windows server 2003 environment, the local printer is mapped with the name “Printer name (from Client name)in Session #” Ex. E2442 (from Clerk1)in session 2.

    Can anyone provide me with a answer to how I can keep the original printer name or maybe a way to remove the extension after the printer name? The program is strict on using just the name “E2442”. When I rename the printer after logging into Terminal Server, by removing the extension, the program work great. Of course when I logout and back in again the problem returns. Any help would be appreciated.
