RenPrinters 3.1 has been released
RenPrinters 3 is a service for
Server 2003, Server 2008 and Server 2012 that will rename printers installed by
Terminal Service / Remote Desktop clients.
When a Remote Desktop Client logs in to the server their printer is installed on the system in a format similar to the following (depending on your language):
Server 2003 Example: HP LaserJet 5 (from client) in session 10
Server 2008 Example: HP LaserJet 5 (10)
Server 2008 R2 Example: HP LaserJet 5 (redirected 10)
Server 2012 Example: HP LaserJet 5 (redirected 10)
Every time a client logs in to the Terminal Server the Session number in the printer name will change. This causes a problem in some programs that require the printer name to remain exactly the same. Or you just may need a differrent / shorter naming format than what Windows provides.
The RenPrinters service will rename printers when Terminal Service / Remote Desktop Clients connect to the server. Renaming the above printer example to:
HP LaserJet 5 from Client

- Only Rename Printers Using the TS Port - RenPrinters can ignore local printers and only rename those connected in through a Remote Desktop session.
- Strip all Parenthesis - Strip all Parenthesis from printer names.
- More Printer Name Variables - You can now use more than two variables in the printer name. Example: %printername% - %username% - %clientname%
- Use Client Name - You now have the ability to use the client hostname / clientname in your printer naming scheme.
- Regular Expressions - RenPrinters will now allow you to use Regular Expressions to define what printer names you would like to rename.
