hello all, i am using freerdp-webconnect it works great but i need to map printers how can i do this?

Hello @elieda, I suppose you mean you need to print files from the remote computer on the client's printers. Unfortunately FreeRDP-WebConnect does not send files across the network to be printed on the client side. Can you tell me more about your setup, we might be able to mitigate the issue.

Hello @elieda Taking in consideration that the setup you have is not mobile, it seems that the "Terminal Print" solution is what you're looking for. Also another solution that comes to mind is to have a tunnel (e.g. OpenVPN) between you and the server, not sure if the printer will be seen across the tunnel though.
