Cannot activate Remote Printing
« on: March 14, 2013, 01:13:08 PM »
I have a Windows 7 Pro desktop that I am using TV8 to remote in.   I installed the TV printer driver and was prompted that it installed correctly.  I rebooted the remote desktop and when I logged backin, I do not have a checkmark beside the 'Remote printing'.   I clicked on it, but nothing... no checkmark and the local printer does not appear as a remote choice.

Any ideas?

Thanks!
Mich

I just ran into the same problem. After working without issue for two months, Remote Printing suddenly refused to work.

On the remote machine, start the TeamViewer app, go to Extras/Options /Advanced, go down near the bottom of Advanced Options, find and uncheck "Use UDP (recommended)", and then reboot the remote machine. This worked for me and solved the problem with no apparent performance penalty.

If you look only four or five threads below this one you will see where I already asked this question and posted an answer once I discovered it.

Hope this helps.

THanks worked perfect - had to make the options changes on both computers but printing is now working
