How can I stop printers being redirected from the client
If you don’t want to have printers redirected from the client in a View environment you need to set a registry key or use an ADM template to apply a policy on a specific client. If it does not already exist please add the following key to the clients registry:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\VMware, Inc.\VMware VDM\Client\RDP Settings
Also add a REG_SZ value under the above key if is doesn’t exist (or modify the value) to RedirectPrinters = false
When you are using View 3.x and the printer is still getting redirected it’s possible that the virtual printing component causes that. In this case you could also set the parameter:
HKLM\SOFTWARE\thinPrint\TPAutoConnect\ConnectToClient
to DISABLE. The default should be AUTO.
