    Universal Print Drivers for 2008 x64 Remote Desktop Services

    I have a huge issue with a program that must have the same name printer every time its used. Using the "Easy Print" driver in 2008 R2 does work spot on only it changes the name of the printers every time by adding the users session number to the end. If you remove this number it kills the print driver (nice one Microsoft)

    I have tried another program called "Screwdrivers" and its very good but it costs £1600 per server and we have 5 servers!

    Does anyone here know of or use anything like this and if so what do you use?

    oh and the reason we need to so it this way is that the printers do not have x64 drivers, there are about 6 different versions of the same printer in use across different sites etc etc.

    thanks

    Its actually for Epson TM-T88 thermal printers for PoS tills. Epson drivers are poor but most PoS systems like Fidelio use the Generic Text Driver and send all the commands from the actual program sadly this system doesn't do that.
