Simplifying XP Professional RDP printing

|
Windows XP Pro users
can take advantage of Microsoft’s Remote Desktop
Protocol and Remotely log into their machines from
other Windows XP Pro computers or Windows XP machines
with the Remote Desktop software installed.
This is great for the occasional telecommuter who
needs to access their desktop at the office or remotely
accessing the home PC.
However the Windows
Remote Desktop Protocol doesn’t work with many of
the consumer printers on the market and some virtual
printer drivers. Print2XP makes mapping these
drivers easy. Just install the Print2XP Server
component on the machine you are logging into, and
the Print2XP Client component on the machine you
are Remoting from and select the printers you want
to map, the next Remote Desktop session you initiate
your printers will appear on the remote computer.
Print2XP dynamically
configures itself to present the user with a seamless
printing solution allowing them to print any file
from an RDP session directly to their local or network
PC. Print2XP is compatible with any available windows
printer driver, including USB printers, network
printers and even virtual printer drivers used in
fax and document imaging applications.

How does it work?
Print2XP automatically
creates a virtual printer driver for each client
printer to be mapped on the remote PC. The
virtual printer drivers appear as available printers
and will be easily identifiable to the printing
user.
RDP users can print
to the virtual printer drivers as they would print
to any printer from any Windows application.
Print2XP will then compact and transmit the data
to the client’s local printer for printing.
The data transmitted by Print2XP is typically much
smaller than the actual file being printed and will
still have the same print quality and color as the
original document.
Any number of printers
can be automatically connected to each terminal
server client session. This can optionally be restricted
by the system administrator to be only the default
client printer or a maximum number of client printers.
