Redirected Printers

Posted: Tue Apr 03, 2018 11:16 PM

All, when using fivewin and calling out various printers, I have found that if I set a printer to a name that does not exist on the workstation windows simply posts a setup printer dialog and asks for the user to select a printer.

When using RDP I have found that the printers seem to have a '(redirected' after the printer name.

i.e. 'HP Laserjet 400DNE (redirected1)'

When utilizing printers within RDP if it has the (redirected1) this Printer Setup dialog always pop's up.

Anyway to suppress this from happening?

Thanks,

Byron ...

Anybody know how to suppress this dialog when calling a printer in fivewin?
If the printer you call out doesn't exist, it will popup.
It behaves differently on Windows 10, then on Windows 7.
