Mac RD Client extremely slow printing with PDF files


have installed new version 8 of microsoft remote desktop on macbook pro.  runs fun in general.  when printing out of applications, works fine. but, when printing stand-alone pdf or image file, literally takes hour transfer print file session local printer.  anyone else having problem?

hi,

based on research, in order printer redirection work properly, client needs have .net framework 3.0 or above work properly, mac not have.

by default when connect windows server rds, tries use rds easy print function first. local drivers used server passing print commands directly client; requires .net framework 3.0. on windows side solves lot of headaches printers, won't on mac side.

when easy print fails (as on macs), server tries find drivers in local database , try use print.

therefore, i'd recommend install necessary print drivers onto server , test issue again.

hope helps.
