Boca/RDP oddness

(I’m cross-posting this to Ticketing and Technical, so apologies if you receive it twice…)

 

Hello Tessi-friends,

 

I am preparing for everyone’s favorite adventure, an off-site show. Here’s what I can do right now:

 

·         I am able to connect to our Terminal Server from the computer in the venue’s ticket office.

·         I am able to install one of our Boca printers on the computer in the venue’s ticket office.

·         I am able to SEE the Boca printer in the remote desktop session.

 

Here’s what I can’t do right now:

 

·         Select the Boca printer and print tickets in Tessitura.

 

Sad day, right? From what I can tell, the printer’s there, installed, and coming through on the RDP session. Tessitura just can’t use it. Any ideas?

 

Thanks!

 

-p.

  • And if you have the older and slightly less shiny Server 2008 version, the function is called “easy print”, and I had to turn it off via group policy to get my bocas to play nice with remote. This was a few years ago, and I recall tearing my hair out over it at the time.

     

    Good luck!

    Hi Patrick

    Is your terminal server a shiny new Server 2012 version, with the Universal Printer Driver option? I believe people have had problems printing from Tess with that switched on, and have had to disable it. There's some posts on here with more detail, I think.
