Anybody notice this problem <http://support.microsoft.com/kb/971314>? I
haven't yet.

After you install the Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5 Service Pack 1 (SP1), XML
Paper Specification (XPS) Essentials Pack, or any hotfix package that
updates the Unidrv.dll file or other printer driver files on a computer that
is running Windows XP or Windows Server 2003, all Printer Control Language
(PCL) inbox printer drivers become unsigned.

In this situation, all PCL inbox printer driver installations fail.

I did notice this Citrix article<http://support.citrix.com/article/CTX120416>,
which points to a different Microsoft article
<http://support.microsoft.com/kb/961118>with a downloadable hotfix.
