Re: Thinprint port name

Not sure about your first question, but to answer your second question, try this:

Use the REG_DWORD registry setting HKLM\SOFTWARE\ThinPrint\TPAutoConnect\DisableSettingOfDefPrinter in the VM. Set it to 1 to prevent Thinprint from changing the default printer. If the key does not exist, create it:

DWORD:1

Name: DisableSettingOfDefPrinter

Value: 1

Location: HKLM\SOFTWARE\ThinPrint\TPAutoConnect\

It worked for us.

Or you can try this:
