NimbostratusRemote Desktop Resources - printer redirection
I have looked around and haven't found much about printer redirection with the F5's Remote Desktop Resource. When you launch one of the resources from the WebTop you can see the printers are redirect...
Unfortunately 3rd party DLL over RDP virtual channels can't work with APM's current RDP implementation. This means you can't use Screwdrivers or Easy Print.
Eventually the current mechanism of ActiveX-RDP will be replaced with a MUCH better one that supports MSRDP Applications and Desktops using the native MSTSC in any web browser. The release to support this should come out in mid to late 2016.

I am running 12.1.1 HF1. I have an RDP VS configured to load balance 3389 to multiple backend Microsoft RDS servers. I then have a VS to present the webtop and Remote Desktop profile that points to the RDP VS. This works great except for printing.
When I use my RDP client through the RDP VS (bypassing the webtop VS), I can print. When I browser through the Webtop VS, connect to the Remote Desktop profile, printing does not work. I do have Drives and Printers enabled in my Remote Desktop profile.
