How do I reduce the number of redirected printers in a remoteapp session?

we have set several applications on windows 2008 r2 rds server.  printing very important for some of applications , users find hard locate printers because printer list shows redirected printers.  there 60 100 printers listed depending on time of day.  time consuming them go through list find printer.  have published applications remoteapp rdp file but, have tried remoting server first , launching program , long list of printers still there.  users see there direct attached (usb) printer , printers loaded directly on rds server.  have enabled redirect default client printer , there no affect. 

as side note, have disabled use remote desktop easy print printer driver first because leaving not configured made printing slow. 

any appreciated. 

hi,

this indication application not using proper method obtain list of available printers.  recommend contact software manufacturer , see if there update available.

as test may try cleaning out list of printers 1 user , see if helps.  test user logged off of server (use rds manager make sure there no sessions listed user), open administrator command prompt , enter following commands:

reg load hklm\atemphive "c:\users\username\ntuser.dat"
reg delete "hklm\atemphive\software\microsoft\windows nt\currentversion\devices" /va /f
reg delete "hklm\atemphive\software\microsoft\windows nt\currentversion\printerports" /va /f
reg unload hklm\atemphive

after completing above please run remoteapp test user account , see if of other redirected printers still show up.

thanks.
