Matthew, You can control this behavior with FR3. In the CMC, under Printer Management Properties, under printers there is a setting Always create client network printers as client printers. If it is checked users network printers will show up as: \\client\clientname#\\\printservername\printersharename If it is unchecked then it will show up as the printer name. With this feature enabled, network printers are created as client printers in the ICA session. With FR2 this was controlled in the registry under: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Citrix\ClientPrinterAuto Create Value Name: fCreateNetworkPrinter Value Type: DWORD Value: 1 (to have network printers created as client printers) Value: 0 (to retain the Feature Release 2 behavior) -Mike Original Message: ----------------- From: Matthew Shrewsbury MShrewsbury@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Date: Mon, 16 Aug 2004 14:23:53 -0400 To: thin@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [THIN] FR3 printing looks different? I am in the process of setting up my new farm printers. I have some sites that don't have a print server that will use autocreated printers. I have other sites that won't use autocreated at all (logon script installed printers). In FR3 I am seeing two types of icons appear for autocreated printers. One icon looks like a standard network printer (but it was autocreated). The other type says "Client\domain.com-username\printer name". The network printer appears to print direct to the print server. The other seems to print to the client... How do I control this? They should all be in this case printing directly to the print server instead of to the client. I've heard people talk about "importing the print server" do I need to do this? Does anyone have a white paper on how FR3 printing works? Thanks for all the help, Matthew Shrewsbury, MCSE+Internet MCSE 2000 CCA -------------------------------------------------------------------- mail2web - Check your email from the web at http://mail2web.com/ . ******************************************************** This Weeks Sponsor RTO Software Do you know which applications are abusing your CPU and memory?
