Yes I have a good server and it looks like some of the print drivers hadn't been replicated to the bad guys. That could be my problem. Thanks! so much stuff to look at when it comes to Citrix printing Now if I could figure out why the file associations aren't working I'd be a hero for at least a minute.

If your printers are configured in user Windows session they are treated as client printers. To get them in Citrix in CMC Printers properties you have to have: 1. "Auto-create client printers when user logs on" checked 2. "All client printers" selected I do not have "Update client printers at each logon" checked. 1. Check event log to see if there are Metaframe events related to printing. 2. Check if all the printdrivers good servers have are replicated to the servers in question (This is done through CMC Printer Management). 3. Check the Print Spooler service if it is up and running on these problem servers. How do you configure these network printers to get to user's citrix session? Do you have other citrix servers in the same farm that work OK? Thanks, Pavlo Ignatusha Systems Network Coordinator Pembroke Regional Hospital Tel. (613) 732-3675 ext.6150 Fax.

Also I've noticed that when I changed a file association ( shared desktop) on these servers this is not updated in the user's profile either. That's why I'm thinking it's a Windows profile problem and not Citrix These are network printers CMC: update at each login ( do you need the client printer properties as well?) Windows 2003 server MF XP realease 3 all hot fixes applied Thanks for working with me.
