Good Afternoon Everybody,

First of Printers are a pain in Citrix. Some of our users have started
seeing this issue and I have no idea why some users and not others. We
currently have 3 Presentation servers 4.5 in a Farm. They are used for
remote access where I publish application and the web server resides in the
DMZ. Recently a couple of my users started to notice that once they go to
print they see all the printers from all the users which are hundreds of
them.

The citrix servers reside in an OU which has a group policy that should only
allow them to see their own printers installed locally on their box. So far
what I have done is I put in one of the application to one server at a time
and see if the problem will occur on each server just to eleminate if it was
one of the servers that was missbehaving. Then I deleted the user profile on
the citrix server and see if the profile was corrupt and Once that is done
it works the first time but then it fails again. I did some searches on the
net about this particular problem but havent found anything yet . While I am
doing my research I thought I will put it out to you guys to see if anyone
has seen this problem before.

Thankyou in advance.

Sohail Qadir
