Are you using the Native Driver for the 4650N? Take a look at CTX111947 and
see if that describes the issue you are seeing.

The user has HP LaserJet 4650N printers, not 4250. I got that information
updated.   Are there known issues with the N printers?  Again we force all
printers on the PS4 farm to go use the Citrix Universal Driver so I cant
seem to figure out why nothing is printing. 
Very frustrating since This user is virtually clueless to everything and I
have no actual access to the PC itself.

For the mappings to work, the names must match perfectly.  Does she 
use the HP or the MS driver?  PCL 5 or 6, etc.
You need to double check the printer name on her end (the name the driver
uses).

The HP 4000 series drivers can cause issues, especially the 4200 and
4250 drivers (the advanced feature set - duplexing, etc.).  Knocking 
the local driver back to the Microsoft HP 4000 Series driver usually
fixes the problems, but reduces the feature set available to the user
as a result.

Are you seeing if her session tears down when she closes?  Or does she 
disconnect and it just goes into disconnect and never closes?
Does she have a habit of starting print jobs in a rush and
disconnecting her session before it has spooled to the client?

Since you don't believe it is the server, what is the client environment
like?
