Windows rdp does not support redirection of local scanners, so you
will need some 3rd party software.

Citrix Presentation Server 4.0 (Enterprise and Advanced Editions
only) provides TWAIN support; local scanners and USB attached
digital cameras are now supported.

Other solutions are based on sharing the scanner on the network.
This can be done with a number of 3rd party utilities:

* RemoteScan - lets you share any kind of TWAIN scanner (SCSI / USB
/ Firewire, etc.)
http://www.remote-scan.com/
* LWP DokScan for RDP

* ScanShare Pro - from Netcore (SCSI scanners only)
http://www.netcore.com.tw/product.htm
* Some scanner models include network scanner sharing, and are
accessible by terminal server users.

Yep. Remotescan (www.remote-scan.com) works. We use it with scanners that are attached directly to our thin clients (neoware XPe) in both our Terminal Server 2003 and Citrix environments. We tried to use the twain redirection that Citrix provided, but couldnt get it to work consistently.

Also try VirtualScan Software www.scan-monitor.com. It has central management, better support and also less expensive.

VirtScan has come a long way, network any scanner into terminal server and citrix. Very easy to install and manage the environment. The application is available through scan-monitor as well as ocrsolutions.com

Hi,
Remotescan is crap, licensing is worst ever.
300€ per client pc . Example . If you have 10 pc connected to terminal server, it cost 3000€. lol

We are using TSScan from terminalworks, and it works great, pricing is server based about 380 $ per server.

Do not buy remote scan....please.
