Problems printing Generic Text Only to a shared printer from Terminal Server

[Todd]

I have an application that prints to a Generic Text Only printer.
Everything works fine if I am running the application on a machine and
printing to a local printer (connected to a com port on that machine.
If I try to run the application from with in a Terminal Server (RDP)
session and print to the same printer on the same machine (I shared the
printer). Everything prints except the last line. When I print the
second document, the last line of the first documents prints at the top
of the second document. It seems like the print buffer (or com port
buffer) is not being flushed at the end of the job.
Does any one know what I can do to fix this?
Thanks.

Just an idea: instead of sharing the printer, have you tried redirecting the
serial port and sending the print to that in the Terminal Services session?
See the Local Resources tab in the Remote Desktop Client's Options page.
