Remote computer sound Species where the remote computer’s sound should be played (remotely or locally) or if
it should not be played at all.
Enable port mapping Maps the thin client's serial and parallel ports to the remote session.
Enable printer mapping Maps the local print queue to the remote session. Use this option if either USB
redirection is unavailable on the remote host or the printer is a parallel or serial printer.
Congure the printer to use a local printer spooler, and the VMware Horizon View client
automatically sets up a remote printer that sends print spooling commands through a
virtual channel from the remote host to the thin client.
This method requires both that the printer be congured on the thin client and a
Windows driver be specied on the thin client because the VMware Horizon View client
needs to specify to the remote host which driver to use for the remote printer. This
Windows driver must match the driver that the printer would use when locally attached
to a Windows operating system. This information is usually found under the Model in the
printer properties.
Shared folders Add, Remove, or Edit shared folders.
