Abstract: A print driver store is usable for redirection printing in a virtualized computing environment that supports virtual desktops. Native print drivers are uploaded to the print driver store from a client side. When an agent attempts to instantiate a virtual printer at the agent side that corresponds to a physical printer at the client side, the agent checks to determine if a native print driver for the physical printer is installed at the agent side. If the native print driver is not installed, then the agent obtains the native print driver from the print driver store and installs the native print driver at the agent side. The agent completes the instantiation of the virtual printer at the agent side and associates the native print driver with the virtual printer.

Abstract: Techniques are described for enabling a client device having an established virtual desktop session to seamlessly handoff the virtual desktop session to other nearby client devices without the need for the user to manually disconnect the client and re-enter authentication information. The session transfer may be performed using a short-range wireless connectivity protocol, such as BTLE, where the client device having an established virtual desktop session operates in sender mode and broadcasts session handoff messages to nearby receiver devices within a valid range. Another client device operating in receiver mode may accept the session handoff message including session information associated with the virtual desktop session and initiate the transfer of the virtual desktop session without the need for the user to re-authenticate to the server.
