    Parallels Desktop 9 for Mac. Windows 8.1, Mac OS X.6.8

    In the Hardware Setup of Parallels the options "add all Mac printers" and "synchronize Standard Printer" (in the LAN) is enabled


    When I try to print in Windows I get only the the Microsoft XPS Document writer as available printer, which I guess is kind of pdf Writer, that stores a document.

    What is still wrong in my setup?


    Thanks

    Hi Tiburon136,

    This might happen if Parallels Tools are not installed on the Virtual Machine. To install Parallels Tools, please following the link below:

    Once Parallels Tools have been installed, follow the steps outlined in the link below to share a printer between a Windows Virtual Machine and Mac OS X:
