Title: how do i make a virtual serial port
Post by mrcoolboy15 on Sep 20th, 2006, 11:26am
I have a three computers on a network, and they all share the same printer. The problem is when i remote desktop into a remote computer we have some where else, it will not show the printers on our network, therefore not allowing me to print from the remote computer. And i have allowed printer sharing in the remote desktop settings.

any suggestions?

Hi,
As I understand your printer is serial device. Right?
If so, you can share it over network on PC to which the printer is physically plugged (Network Serial Port Kit should be used fro that). Then you can connect shared port as virtual COM port on Terminal Server.
That's all.
