Yes, thank you. I actually used that registry change and it worked fine. I should have done that first since I was reminded of it this week in the NF section.
But. I'm still curious, how do I print to a remote ip printer across the internet not using remote desktop? I know how to port forward remote desktop port 3389, is there a standard port for an ip printer? The raw port seems to suggest 9100. --- Alan Lukachko <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I sent this out last week to let people know. > > We found that using Remote Desktop Connection or the > Terminal Services > Client under Win XP Pro SP2 to connect to and run > our app in remote branches > wouldn't allow us to print to our local networked > printer.
