With virtual printing enabled in the virtual machine setting, all of the printers installed on the host operating system are available in the guest operating system. Virtual Printing - Print from virtual machines without mapping network printers or installing printer drivers in the virtual machine.

VMware Player is one of the most under-appreciated VMware products in my opinion. While everyone is talking about the new versions of VMware Fusion ( Release Notes) and VMware Workstation ( Release Notes) I would like to show my appreciation for VMware Player.
