Windows 2011 SBS Printing

[Scott]

Richard

Yes the printer is shared/installed on that machine as
//servername/printername and works (it goes to a IP port printer).

When logged into RDP session I have that printer available and in the
explorer address bar if u type //servername/printername you get the printer
queue so it is shared and working.

But from Filepro in a RDP session I get a "no such file/directory error" yet
from Filepro in the console it works.

Is there any other services or further rolls that need to be setup.

Is the "//servername/Printername" a shared printer?

Does the RDP session have that printer installed?
