I couldn't even by specifying a printer driver get printer redirection to work.
This actually does work, provided: 1) Sound is enabled ("-r sound:local:alsa" or whatever) 2) A valid printer driver is specified for the exported printer ("printer:thinlocal="MS Publisher Imagesetter"" for example - see bug #4362) Have tested briefly against Windows 2012 and 2012R2 - printing to thinlocal seems to work with thinlinc-rdesktop-4.1.1.
This is intended behavior for 2012 and specs has been updated: http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/75024a3d-458f-4ed9-b55d-7852d0113bd7/rdpbcgrpdf-2-minors-problems-with-server-2012
Created attachment 511 [details] Patch to always register rdpsnd channel. This patch ensures that the rdpsnd and rdpdr static channels always are registered. Fixes both print and local drive redirection. Smartcard still have some problems, but i see communication over pcsc..
Created attachment 512 [details] Updated patch This is a patch the more properly handles a rdpsnd tunnel, it announces but only set capabilities to be alive if sound is enabled using -r sound argument.

Changes to audio and print/drive redirection has been tested against, Windows 2013r/2008r2/2012r2, Windows 8.1.
Printer redirection tested on bug 4362. Sound now tested on 2003R2, 2008R2, and 2012R2, of course using https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=moSFlvxnbgk . For Windows 2012R2, I was not able to get sound working until I did "net start audiosrv" in a command shell as admin. But apparently, in the brave new Windows world, this is how it should be...
