I wish I could say the same. Since I deployed my farm, I've had:
1) Users with > 4 mapped printers would not get ANY mapped printers
(fixed by an older superseded hotfixes)
2) Users loosing their default chosen printer, requiring them to go to
file/print and select default again
3) Users loosing all printing resources requiring them to log off the
session and reconnect
I do all auto creation with actual drivers, no UPD. Standard printers
like HP LJ 4xxx series. Problem occurs across all applications at
random times.
ICA Client 9.1 has a bunch of Acrobat related fixes, which was the worst
of all programs with these problems (Acrobat launching through Outlook
is the only instance where I have Reader running through Citrix BTW). I
haven't read the full fix list, but I'm hoping the new client helps in
general.

I have found little to no printing issues, other than the change in
assigning printers to users/groups, from 3.0 way to now using policies
to do so.

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.
