TS2003 Client Printing Fails

[Stan]

W2003 Server
HP2300 Laserjet drivers installed on server.

WXP Pro client
HP2300 printer installed on client PC and connected on LPT1

Client can print locally when not connected to TS session.

In TS session client can select HP2300 (session x from pcname) printer but
is unable to print test page or any other print job.

This configuration was working for several months. I have not been able to
isolate what may have changed.

Any suggestions?

Resolved my own issue.

Installed HP2100 Driver for HP2300 printer on client computer and it seems
to be working.

Stan, you should be aware that installing print drivers on a TS can cause problems. You can read more about printing from terminal services clients here

There's also an excellent printing whitepaper you can download from this link, written by Claudio Rodrigues, one of the Terminal Services MVPs
