Remote Desktop Printer redirection issue

Version History for 10.9.4 (MAC OS) notes that Printer redirection is fixed with this version but for some reason for me it just went wrong...
With version 10.9.3 it was working fine but after update local printer isn't redirected to RD.

I have to contact to Windows Server 2008 R2 because of an application of my company.
Is there any possibility to fix this issue in a new update?
Now I have to use 10.9.3 Beta version as there is now way to roll back to 10.9.3 in AppStore.

macOS client

    Same issue - this appears to be related to this fix, listed in the Beta client:

    https://install.appcenter.ms/orgs/rdmacios-k2vy/apps/microsoft-remote-desktop-for-mac/distribution_groups/all-users-of-microsoft-remote-desktop-for-mac

     

    "Printer redirection has been broken when connecting from macOS Sonoma due to the removal of PostScript support. This release fixes printer redirection for connections from macOS Sonoma to Windows 10 or later."

     

    You'll note it says Windows 10 or later - Windows 2012 R2 is the Windows 8 kernel, so this update to "fix the issue" will not support 2012 R2 nor Server 2008 R2(as neither is supported any longer.)

     

    The only workarounds are upgrading the OS or using TSPrint(or another third-party software.)

    I sincerely doubt they ever fix this.
