User cannot print to local printer from remote session

ahebert When you make a remote connection, at that time there should activate a LMI Remote Printer, which will also be visible in the Host Printer Driver, and marked there as the active default. If this is not happening when you connect from another desktop, then you should probably start troubleshooting by reinstalling on the affected host PC.

I just logged on a remote session via logmein to one of our clients and at the bottom right of the screen it said "now connecting to so and so printer" that means a LMI printer was connected?
I also believe the end-user may have had an older version of the logmein client on the client computer that she was trying remoting into because when she was logged in. Under Options > remote printer it just gave a check mark box and a printer symbol with other choices (if that makes sense). By the way, I appreciate all the help!
