I am using the newest Microsoft Desktop that I downloaded from the Microsoft store. I have no trouble remoting into the system I have set up, but I cannot connect a printer for local printing at my desk. Is there a setting for me to add a printer that I am not seeing?

Please note this is not Remote Desktop Connection, but Microsoft Remote Desktop.

    Hello Steven Poblete,

    It appears that printer redirection is not supported in the Microsoft Remote Desktop app, as I couldn't locate this feature within my Remote Desktop client either. Would it be possible to use Remote Desktop Connection instead?
