Remote desktop printing, LinkOS

Hi
I have recently grabbed the C# LinkOS sample code from Git, to get a handle of a USB printer and it has been working fine on my local PC.
When it comes to running my application on a remote PC where the printer is connected locally, my application can no longer find any Zebra printers.
Remote desktop connection - Local resources includes the printers has PnP devices.
in the remote PC it shows 2 printers

Using UsbDiscoverer.GetZebraUsbPrinters() I cannot discover any Zebra printers.
Using UsbDiscoverer.GetZebraDriverPrinters() will discover printers and it appears to connect but unable to get status or print anything with error message Error writing to connection: ZDesigner ZD620-300dpi ZPL
I have seen a fix where I can disable the 'Use remote desktop Easy Print driver first' in the local group policy editor.
Unfortunately, this did not work.
Is there an alternative fix for this or a change to my setup?
Many thanks

Hi George,
There are some example apps in the LinkOs directory.
Have you tried to use them? Have they got the same issue?
