Remote desktop users can see the printers of the other users in Windows 7 SP1 or Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1.
Symptoms:
Assume that a user logs on to Windows Server 2008 R2 with remote desktop connection from a computer that is running Windows 7 Service Pack 1 (SP1) or Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1, and then opens
Devices and Printers. In this situation, the user can see the printers of all the other users even though the permissions are set correctly for only the owner to access the printer.
Cause:
This issue occurs because the printer cache does not update details of the spool directory changes that are made to every printer. This makes the printers continuously to be shown to all logged-on users even though the users might not have the access to the printer.
