Now that Longhorn Server Beta 3 is released, it's time to take the covers off a new feature in Longhorn Server - Terminal Services Easy Print. The folks over at the Terminal Services Team Blog just published their post on the topic - here's something to whet your appetite ...

TS Easy Print is a proxy for every print action that simply redirects all printing-related work to the user's local machine without the need to install any print drivers on the TS server. This system provides several benefits, such as being able to redirect any printer from the user's client machine without having to reconfigure the server while still allowing the user to configure the print job as though he were printing on his client machine.

On Longhorn Server, the user's local client printers installed in a TS session will be installed with the TS Easy Print system.
