ReplyDeleteHi There, you do not need to delete file from server. You just need to delete TSWPFWRP.EXE file from your windows XP system 32 folder and copy same named file from windows 7 PC. Let me know if you stuck anywhere and can not solve it.

Awesome! Thank sooooooo much!!!
ReplyDeleteYour a starrr!!
ReplyDeleteI am happy to hear this post has helped you guys. and yeah thank you so much for your comments.
ReplyDeleteHi There,
ReplyDeleteIt does not work for me :-(. I got rid of the message but there are no prints comming out of the printer.
Any more good ideas?
Hi There, It could be printer driver does not support terminal server printing. If you have another printer handy then try another printer. If you already tried another printer then use universal print driver instead of specific printer model driver. You need to use that print driver on local computer and terminal server will automatically use client universal print driver..
ReplyDeleteTry this and let me know if it works.
good luck
This didn't work for me
ReplyDeleteHas anyone tried any other solutions to this?
Hi just wondering did you install .NET Framework already? If not please install it and see if it works.
ReplyDeleteHi! The XP SP3 and the .NET Framework 3.5 SP1 are installed, but this doesn't work. :-( Any other idea?
ReplyDeleteAnonymous: Can you actually print outside of the Terminal Server session?
ReplyDeleteWhich printer are you using?
Superb! this fix works a treat. Thank You.
