Hi Adam,

Win2k3 blocks the installation of kernel mode printer drivers
(modifiable by policy). 

Some older products (Acrobat 5 etc) use kernel mode drivers so for them
it's no go.

Regards,

Rick

Subject: [THIN] Printer install


Hi All,

I am having trouble installing a PDF print driver.  It shows up in the
registry in the expected places, but will not show up in Start,
Settings, Printers.  Where can I set so that it shows installed for a
particular user?  I have a similar system with the driver installed (and
displaying
properly) so I tried copying my HKCU printer settings from one server to
the problematic one and it didn't fix the problem.

I've rebuilt without Citrix to see if it was the culprit.  I even
forewent any MS patches and other lockdowns.  Still not working.

W2K3, plain old TS.

rgds,
adam
