Table 3-20 RDP Local Resources Option Description Remote computer options Valid options are: Do not play, Bring to this computer, and Leave at remote computer. Enable port mapping Maps the client's serial and parallel ports to the remote session. Enable printer mapping Maps the local print queue to the remote session. Use this option if either USB redirection is unavailable on the remote host or the printer is a parallel or serial printer. Configure the printer to use a local printer spooler, and the RDP client automatically sets up a remote printer that sends print spooling commands through a virtual channel from the remote host to the client. This method requires both that the printer be configured on the client and a Windows driver be specified on the client because the RDP client needs to specify to the remote host which driver to use for the remote printer. This Windows driver must match the driver that the printer would use when locally attached to a Windows operating system. This information is usually found under the Model in the printer properties. 10. Under Experience, select the appropriate options and then click Next.
