Q3: I can see my printer in the "Printers & Faxes" of the Virtual Desktop, but not in QuickBooks
I'm using a local printer
I am using a network printer
Note: Network printers may not be renamed; they will need to have their network people rename the printer for them.
Note: The printer name is the characters before the ‘[‘ or ‘(‘ character. For example, if you see "HP Printer [PSNBTEST22:3]", then the printer name is "HP Printer".
Q4: I cannot print a certain transaction in QuickBooks, but other transactions I can print.
Note: The printer name is the characters before the ‘[‘ or ‘(‘ character. For example, if you see "HP Printer [PSNBTEST22:3]", then the printer name is "HP Printer".
Q5: When I try to print, I am getting a message that says something like ‘The file exists….’ And when I click OK the message comes out again for n number of times.
This happens because someone else on the server is printing simultaneously, you just need to keep on pressing OK and the document will print
Q6: I have tried logging off and logging back in. I also tried restarting my computer, but when I log in I still cannot see my printer in the Printers and Faxes.
Uninstall the printing client (Simplify or EOL) and then re-install the printing client.Q7: My printer shows up in the Printers and Faxes, and the printer name is 12 characters or shorter. I cannot print in QB and Notepad.

Not at this time. A solution is underway. You can always print from your local machine if you save the files to your local C drive. The same is true for Macintosh users.

YES, as long as you're able to print from your computer locally, it will appear on your virtual desktop.
