When I print from a Windows WorkSpace to a local printer, why do I experience document formatting or printer feature issues?

Resolution

When you print from a WorkSpace, issues with document formatting or specific printer features might be because of one of the following reasons:

• Mismatched printer drivers
• A Group Policy that doesn't allow advanced remote printing

To resolve these issues, complete the following steps:

1. Verify that the latest version of the WorkSpaces client is installed on the host computer.

2. Confirm that a WorkSpaces Group Policy that allows basic and advanced remote printing is installed in your domain.

3. Run the following Windows PowerShell command to update the Group Policy:

   gpupdate /force

4. Run the following Windows PowerShell command to check whether the latest printer driver is installed on the local host and in the Windows WorkSpace:

   Get-PrinterDriver

5. Reboot the WorkSpace.
