Printers

A generic universal print driver is installed on the thin client to support text-only printing to a locally connected printer. To print full text and graphics to a locally connected printer, install the driver provided by the manufacturer and follow the manufacturer’s

instructions. Be sure to disable the write filter cache or run the

-commitcommand to save the installation. You can print to network printers from ICA and RDP applications through print drivers on the servers.

For additional information, please review the Printing and Imaging

Support on HP Thin Clients white paper on the HP support site at:

http://welcome.hp.com/country/us/en/support.html.

ÄCAUTION: If the available free space on the flash memory is reduced to less than 3 MB, the thin client becomes unstable.

✎Downloading and using printers requires sufficient flash space. In some cases, you may have to remove software components to free up space for printers.

✎Printing to a locally-connected printer from an ICA or RDP session using the print drivers of the server produces full text and graphics functionality from the printer. To do this, you must install the print driver on the server and the text-only driver on the thin client (see the following section).
