We are having problems printing on the client PC while using remote desktop
connection. Are there issues with USB printers on the client? Does it have
to be connected to a parallel printer?

Thank you
 
Yep... Take a look at

Jeffrey's posted the relevant article.

Some USB-connected printers work just fine--those using USBxxx ports. It's
the DOT4 ports that are an issue.

I've heard mixed reports from folks following the registry edit suggestion
in that article.

Make the change, reboot, and see what happens--the driver must still be
available at the host machine, of course.
