Forwarding USB printer from Linux terminal to Windows Server 2008r2?

Depo Sky 171 thin clients are in place, Depo OS is a stripped-down version of Debian. Ruth is not. A Windows Server 2008r2 server has a Terminal Server deployed on it. It is necessary to forward ports with connected printers from clients (there are different printer locations and no more than 1 piece per shopping mall). I used USB Redirector - it is shareware, I did not find the key, the trial period could not be reset. How to be??? You need a solution that does not require money / license / key.

The print server must be deployed on WinServer2008r2, then all drivers must be installed on it from all printers that you will connect via the terminal. In the rdp settings there should be a printer forwarding point.
here is the solution in pictures

The depo website says that it is possible to forward usb to an rdp session. Kick the depo techpod for instructions on how to do it.
It is also written on the site that there is a web interface for configuration, I would pick it up for the item "usb forwarding"
