SYMPTOMS
The default printer for the Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) terminal client is not set as the default printer in a terminal session. This problem occurs in Microsoft Windows CE .NET 4.2. You notice this problem after you connect to a terminal session on either a terminal server or on a desktop host. Either the default printer of the host remains as the default printer, or one of the other printers on the RDP client terminal is set as the default printer.



CAUSE
The printer management code for the RDP terminal client in Windows CE .NET 4.2 does not correctly mark the default printer for the terminal client. This problem occurs when the printers are identified to the host terminal session.
