    When I dial into my office computer form home, each time I do this it opens a Save As box and asks me to save "Remote Desktop Redirected Printer Doc ", a PDF file. It does this twice for every session.

    Why? And how to I prevent it?

    Once connected go to COntrol Panel->Printers->find your printer and see if there is a print job there... If found - cancel it.

    Thanks for the reply. I can cancel the print jobs, but I don't want to have to do that each time. How do I stop them going there each time?

    Thanks Steve - I trawled through 10 Google pages and cannot find any solution there.
