Unable to activate remote printing

I'm using the free edition of TeamViewer 12. When I attempted to activate remote printing today I received a message that this feature is unavailable in the free edition of TeamViewer. I've used this feature many times in the past. It worked fine yesterday. Did TeamViewer make changes to the features available in the free version? Thanks.

I just learned that a license needs to be purchased in order to do remote printing now. This was a response from TeamViewer.

Same problem here...is the remote printing a feature of the paid version only now? Because it doesn't even show the option anymore, and I tried reinstalling the driver, redownloading Teamviewer and nothing can make the button come back. Would be nice for some clarity from Team Viewer, its not great when a feature just disappears with no explanation!

TeamViewer really should state that on their website. No where does it say a paid version is required for remote printing. Also, for light users that help out their friends and family with computer issues are not going to pay [the price has been removed per the Community Guideline] just for remote printing.
