● To use printers connected to the remote PC while accessing them from the
instrument, activate "Printers" under "Local devices and resources".

"Save As".
Terminating Remote Desktop Control
A Remote Desktop connection can be terminated either on the R&S RTP or on the
remote PC. The connection can be established again any time as long as remote con-
trol is enabled on the instrument. Consider the notice "Risk of unauthorized access"
on page 1102.
► To terminate the connection on the remote PC, close the "Remote Desktop" win-
dow, or select "Start > Disconnect".
