You lost me on "CUPS/UPD and forcing the view the pop up on the client."
We're using Xenapp 5.0. If it's possible with our version, please point me
in the right direction on that and I'll get working on some testing. :)

"Native drivers are the ones that come installed with the Windows OS.Those
are certified to work in a TS/RDS/Citrix environment. The Canon drivers you
use, are they certified or native drivers? Probably not?"*
Apologies for any confusion in my terminology there. The Canon drivers we're
using (or attempting to use) are "certified" drivers from Canon.
Support has informed us we need a "dias" service setup on the terminal
servers for the drivers to work properly . . still no go.
Thanks,
Lan
