We have some problems with redirected printers in Server 2016 datacenter.
When the client redirect his printer into the remote desktop Service. The server uses the default remote easyprint driver. The problem we come across is that the client settings will not be redirected so the client can't use all the trays or uses both side printing. it isn't possible to change settings on the printer because it's a redirected printer.
The steps we take.
- Tried another printer (same problem)
- Tried original drivers on the server (same problem)
- Clean Windows server 2016 standard installation (same problem)
- Tried on server 2012 with both printer. remote easyprint (no problem)
- Install the printer directly on the server with original drivers (no problem)
All the above steps are performed with an administrator account.
So we can conclude there are some issues with redirected printers in server 2016.
Is this a well know issue in server 2016 or is there a solution for this problem.
