Dear hkm,
Thank you very much for your post.
In order to set up remote printing, you would first have to install the TeamViewer print driver. You will find this option under “Extras > Options > Advanced > Show advanced options > Advanced network settings > Install remote printing”. Please be sure to install this driver on both sides of the connection.
Once the drivers have been installed, you can establish a connection to your remote computer and activate remote printing in the TeamViewer toolbar:
Your local printers will now be displayed in the print dialog boxes on the remote computer. They will be labelled “[name of printer] via TeamViewer”.
To run a print job, just follow these simple steps:
- Open the document you would like to print and open your normal Print dialog box.
- Select a printer ending with “via TeamViewer”.
- Start the print job.
Please note that the remote printing function is only available for connections from Windows to Windows and that your printer needs to support PostScript or EMF.
I hope this was helpful! If you encounter any difficulties, please do not hesitate to post a detailed description of what went wrong
All the best,
Katharina

My problem is that once I click on "activate remote print" nothing happens. I do not get a prompt to install any drivers. I've looked in downloads on both machines but cannot find any remote print drivers to install. I've logged out, closed down, started over - never get the prompts to install any drivers. Can the drivers be downloaded from somewhere else?

Hi theepegasus,
Thank you for your post.
You can install the print drivers in your TeamViewer settings. Simply open the main window of your TeamViewer and go to “Extras > Options > Advanced > Show advanced options > Advanced network settings > Install remote printing”.
The drivers should be installed on both sides of the connection.
I hope this is helpful.
All the best,
Katharina

I know how I should get it to remote print. The problem is that when I get to the step of "activate remote print" I do not get any of the pop ups to download or install anything.

Hi theepegasus,
Thanks for your reply. I apologise for the late response.
Once the drivers have been installed on both sides of the connection and you have selected "activate remote printing" in the tool bar, you should not have to download or install anything else.
As soon as you have completed the above-mentioned steps, you should be able to see your local printers in the print dialog as "[printer name] via TeamViewer".
If this does not work for you, could you kindly confirm that your printer supports either PostScript or EMF print drivers?
I look forward to hearing from you.
All the best,
Katharina
