I'm using RDC on my Windows XP Pro at home and connecting to a Windows 2003
Terminal Server at work. Everything works great, except my new USB printer.
How do I get the terminal services session to recognize my new local USB
printer?
 
My understanding to use USB on local must have Drivers installed on Remote.

If local is Paralel no need to install drivers on remote.

At least that worked for me last week when I shipped my laptop and extra
printer to vegas to enjoy our vacation and still get some work done.
 
And how do you load drivers onto the remote? I've added the printer to the
Terminal Server box, however, this didn't seem to fix the problem.
 
Ok, it *seems* to be redirected locally but it still doesn't work. It says
the port it is using is "Inactive TS Port". What does that mean?
