I've been tempted to try out one of the 3rd party printing apps.  I was
trying to get feedback to see how much it might really help.  If it
would solve my problems, it would be well worth the costs.  I guess I'll
have to look into it.

We have seen some of the same printing issues, but ADAM is using
Simplify Printing by Tricerat and our customers that have 4.0 and
Tricerat are literally getting 100%, okay maybe 99.9% no-issue client
printing......

From reading on the Citrix Support forums from customers, about the only
complaint with MPS4.0 is printing.  People who upgraded from MPS3.0 ->
MPS4.0 say that they had no ussues under 3.0 but are having problems
under
4.0.  Citrix has released 5 or 6 hotifxes now with printing relates
fixes
for 4.0 and there are still issues with the default printing not being
rememebred, or loosing printing resources all together. I know I've been
having issues and I had a brand new 4.0 farm, no upgrades or anything
"weird".

Subject: [THIN] MPS3 or MPS4

All,

About a yr ago, we started the process of building a new farm here.  I
got
new servers, new versions of applications, new version of the OS (w2k3
vs
w2k).   What should have taken a few months is up to 10 months.  A huge
chunk of the slowdown is that this new setup is not a high priority for
us,
as compared to maintaining the 911 system, PD/Fire dispatch, etc.  Well,
we
are almost done.  The new platform is W2K3 (no SP1) and MPS3 with the
2005.4 service pack.    My question is: should we bite the bullet and
click
the check box to turn my MPS3 farm into an MPS4 farm?  We use TScale and
Simplified Printing so I don't expect to use those feature of MPS4.  As
for
licensing, I have SA so we are covered there too.
