Printer is not printing in remote seeesion
« on: April 13, 2014, 11:29:20 PM »
hi all need some help on printing remotely. I am trying to print thru my laptop which has a HP newish printer connected to it. it prints ok. when I try and print from the remote access ( remote printing selected) the printer wakes up and make the right noises as if its going to print but doesn't. when i check the print driver thru temviewer in the remote session its using the adove pdf driver remotely not the hp print driver. hope that makes sense!

please help

peter

Many HP printers only have 'host' based drivers, and I'd suspect that these can't print via remote connections.

Try the HP universal driver and see if that helps
