Windows Dedicated Server
I want to print from my Dedicated server (i think over a VPN) and use office and other applications?
I have a Dedicated Server (rented). I am running quickbooks, microsoft office and a mail application (groupmail)
I currently cannot print documents locally from the server, ie if i create a quickbooks file i cannot print it on my pc. I am currently using remote desktop. I would like to increase the amount of users who have access to my system securely (VPN) and enable users to print directly from the server to their local printers. How do i do this? I am runninf windows server 2003
Try this add on for your server.

Then use Terminal Services.
Remote printing with QB is a big issue. Attempting to run QB from a VPN will probably be SLOW. If you check QB wants a lot of bandwidth and most VPN’s won’t provide that so the remote printing addition to Terminal Services is about the only way.
Here is a complete step by step to try for you.
