local printing using remote desktop connection

[Josh Hanft]

When I connect to my server using remote desktop
connection from my Windows XP pc, I cannot print locally.
I have gone into the settings tab and made sure that the
printers box is checked, but the only available printers
that show up are the computers installed on the server. My
local printers are not to be found. How can I print
locally while connected to the server using remote desktop
connection?

Connect to the Terminal Server and start the Add
Printer applet. Select Local printer and change the Port from LPT1 to a TS
port - usually TS001.
