HP t5710 Printing and Imaging Support on HP Compaq Thin Clients - Page 4

Linux Operating System Local Printing You can configure the thin client for local printing from some local applications, such as an Internet browser, or for plain ASCII text printing. The printer must be recognized by the Linux operating system and properly configured. Terminal Services Printing Support If the local client supports and detects the printer, full function printing using port redirection through Citrix ICA is supported for parallel and USB printers if the appropriate printer driver is loaded on the terminal server. Please check printer documentation to ensure that Citrix Metaframe Presentation Server is supported by your printer. Local printing from rdesktop is not supported, as the current version of rdesktop does not provide for printer port redirection from the server to the client. While running an ICA or rdesktop session, you cannot print from a local application. The terminal server session has control of the printer port and will not release to the local application. The user must disconnect from the terminal server session to release the printer port back to the local client.
