Today I tested sharing my 2 local printers: Cups-PDF and HP-LaserJet-4-Plus.

Both working fine locally.

I started xfreerdp like this:

X11/xfreerdp --plugin rdpdr --data printer -- -a 24 192.168.0.11

And on the server I see my two local printers. But I can print to only
one of them (Cups-PDF). The laserjet ends up going into 'stopped' status.

So then after reading some posts about maybe only one printer works, I
restarted xfreerdp like this:

X11/xfreerdp --plugin rdpdr --data printer:HP-LaserJet-4-Plus -- -a
24 192.168.0.11

And on the server I see only the laserjet. But I still get the same
result. The laserjet print job ends up going into 'stopped' status.

The correct driver is listed in Windows under Properties.

The HP LaserJet prints fine locally. I can even print jobs locally with it immediately after freerdp print jobs end up as 'stopped'.
