[THIN] Re: Citrix stopped creating Default Printers

Thanks Tony for you information. I have read all the articles and found
the way how to force removing printers from Windows when a user logs
off.

 

I have also found in the article that there is a registry setting
(fPurgeAnyWay) to force Citrix to remove printers when a user logs off
but unfortunately in PS4.0 the registry hive doesn't exists:

HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Citrix\ClientPrinterProperties

 

Do you have any idea how to force printing removal in PS4 ?

[THIN] Citrix stopped creating Default Printers

 

 

 




It happened to me only once but I would like to know what the reason
was. 

Windows 2000 SP4, Citrix Presentation Server 4.0, Rollup03 

Citrix stopped creating users' default printers and I could see all
previously created printers for users whose sessions weren't exist. Even
if when I rebooted the server Citrix didn't create default printers and
I could still see few printer drivers. 

In Windows Event Log I could found: 

Printer auto-creation failure. Reason: AddPrinter() failed with status
0x70A. Client name: (CSYL-GBROWN) Printer name: (Client/CSYL-
CSYL-GBROWN #/Dell Laser Printer 1710) Port name: (Client\ CSYL-GBROWN
#\Dell Laser Printer 1710) Driver name: (Citrix Universal Printer) Print
processor: (Citrix Print Processor) 

I had to take ownership of the printers and delete them. It helped. I
was lucky because there were only few printers to delete but what if I
had to do it for 50? 

Do you know what could be the reason?
