Remote Desktop Connetion displays Very Small Icons and Jump Lists on Remote Machine

Thank you very much for posting this!  I just bought a Surface Pro 3 and I love it except that I have to use a magnifying lens when I use RDP.  The only problem I have with using RDCMan is that my local printers won't show up, therefore I can't print.  This is true even if I checked on "printers" and "clipboards" under the local resources tab.  Do you know if there's a fix on this or maybe there is something else I should check to make it work.  My local printers show up when I use RDP and when printing outside of RDP so I know it's not a printer set-up issue.  Would really appreciate your help on this.

Hi,

There is no solution that I've seen as of yet - but I haven't really searched much lately - only "dealt with" the MICRO view of the RDP display when needed.  When you use RDCMan - does the resolution mirror a 'standard' view - and just show printer issues?

Hi,

Yes RDCMan mirrors the standard rep except that it won't recognize my local printers. Basically, no printers are showing up when I try to print reports. I print checks from the remote computer so I really need to be able to print from rdcman. Like you, I have to switch back and forth from rdc man to rep whenever I need to print and it is not very productive.

If other users have a fix for this issue, o would really appreciate if you post it here since I like my surface pro so I'm trying hard not to have to return it.

Thanks for the reply - can you tell me more about the use of RDCman - is that something you loaded ON the SP3 or did you have to load it onto the server?  Once loaded on the SP3 - was it complicated to configure etc?  I only briefly reviewed it's use - may have even downloaded it - however had no luck in connecting from what I recall.

Using RDCMan 2.2 my local printer show up when printing from the remote computer. I have "Inherit from Parent" unchecked under the Server Properties local resources tab.
