Dear all

The client system connected to server through RDS, and while working with Navision how to print a sales/purchase invoice on the client/local printer. What configuration in need to set on client and server?

Client: Nav 2009 R2 on Windows XP and Server OS is windows server 2008.

Any clues pls.

Thanks

In a regular RDP connection in Windows theres an option to map local printers.
Does'nt that work for you?

Yes I have selected the local resources, but it did not work. While printing from local system, Navision cannot see the client printer.

Thanks

Does the printer gets mapped OK? Is it visible under Windows Printers?
If not, does the server have the right printer driver? Are there an error in the Event Viewer?

I wrote an article about this back in 2007.

This should get you going.

Hello Alex

Thanks for the article,

I did everything said in the article, I can see and select the printer to print, but once you select ok on print dialog box, no response on client printer and in server printer queue document just disappears after small time.

Thanks
