I am trying to standardize on our printers. Older and more troublesome printers we are getting rid of. All the printers that we have I install the driver for (after testing of course). Home users, or users attempting to access Citrix from a PC with a different printer driver of course get the UPD. Most of the time I hear the UPD works but that just depends on the printer. I never guarantee printing except on printers I have tested and approved. The UPD is never going to have all the printers functions (except for simple printers) and also I hear has a tendency to spool large print jobs. I think the best bet is to install all the printer drivers you know you need. Then use the UPD for the one offs.

Just curious, seems to me that if the UPD didn't seem to be doing the trick with say one particular printer, then the only way for us as admins to make it happen, would be to install the driver on our servers, or to create mappings from one driver to another. So how do you all decide what drivers you will or will not install on your servers? And BTW, we have already gone down the 3rd party road w/no luck.

I'm not aware of any list of printers known to work with the UPD driver.

However, if that driver is not installed on our servers then that printer should still be autocreated, but it will use the Citrix Universal Print driver by default, right? So is there a list of printers or drivers somewhere that will or will not work using the UPD?
