[python-win32] determine the default printer from RDP

[Terry Davis]

Hi John,

In the Windows RDP client, under "Show Options" -> "Local Resources" ->
section "Local devices and resources" is "Printers" checked?

I haven't tried what you're referring to, but perhaps that setting is
relevant to your problem?
