Our terminal servers have a way to print remotely - even to PDF. However, you do not use your normal printer. The terminal servers have a special printer called TS Print PDF (printer). Once you print to this printer, you will be asked to either save the file or email it to yourself.
When you save the file, you will have the option of choosing a mapped drive (network share) or saving the file on the either under your Documents Library or your Desktop.
Below are a few steps that might immediately solve your problem.
