I'm having a problem with my terminal services cluster. Users connecting to one of the servers randomly will have their available printers change.
They will have something like Netprinter1 Netprinter2
And it will randomly change to NetprinterA Session 1 NetprinterA Session 2 NetprinterA Session 3
NetprinterB Session 1 NetprinterB Session 2 NetprinterB Session 3
I'm not using logon scripts the printers are just added through the add a printer wizard. In the past I had restarted the print spooler service and had the people log off and back on to fix the problem. Now it's happening a lot and restarting the print spooler isn't fixing it anymore.
EDIT gimpo jogged my memory about something. The users this is happening to have a local printer installed on the local machine with forwarding set up in the RDP settings. In terminal services they have 1 network printer and the local printer being forwarded by RDP. sorry about that
