local printer NOT available in a remote desktop session

I’d like to make my local printer available in a remote desktop session.

I’ve followed these instructions
To make your local printer available in a session
1. In the Remote Desktop Connection window, click Options.
2. On the Local Resources tab, under Local devices, click Printers.
3. Click Connect.
Notes Depending on the policies of your network, local printer mapping might
be disabled for some or all remote connections. However, you can print to
network printers.

But I still only see my PDF printer and image write available in the remote
session.

To be clear, I’m remote desktop connected to a computer and want to be able
to print locally.

According the note: “Depending on the policies of your network, local
printer mapping might be disabled for some or all remote connections.�

So I want to figure out why its not working so I can ask my administrators
to make changes to let me do this. Please let me know how to trouble shoot
this. What are the first things to check to see where its hanging up.

I run Windows XP

The printer is hp LaserJet 1320 PS.

Printer is installed on the 25pin port (serial I think?) but NOT USB. Local
Devices and Resources that are brought to the session are:
Printers, smart cards, serial ports and all the drives and the clipboard,
everything.
