Hello All,
I had a HP Printer, which connect to my virtual client without any issues. Now I bought a new printer, again HP, but now the printer is not linked to my VM.
When I run tpautoconnect, I get "Unknown client type":
C:\Program Files\VMware\VMware Tools>TPAutoConnect.exe -v

Client inside VM is Windows 10 x64 build (10.0.15063), with latest updates.
I upgraded to VMware 14.1.3 build 9474260 recently.
VMware Tools 10.2.5.8068393 is installed.
Thanks in advance for your responses.
Hello all,
problem solved.
Before I uninstalled, and installed VMware tools, but that didn't help. That's why I posted.
After posting, I tried "changing" VMware tools. I uninstalled only the Thinprint part. Then rebooted, installed Thinprint again, and a last reboot.
After that last reboot, everything works.
