Products: Citrix MetaFrame XP 1.0 for Microsoft Windows 2003, Citrix
MetaFrame Presentation Server 3.0 for Microsoft Windows 2003

Symptom

The native driver for a client-defined network-connected printer is
installed on the MetaFrame server even though Automatically install native
drivers for auto-created client and network printers is not selected.

Cause

This behavior is by design on Windows 2003 Terminal Server. Citrix does not
control it.

Workarounds

? Specify to auto-create the network printer as a local printer.

? or ?

? Specify to use the universal printer driver only (this implicitly makes
the network printer become a local printer).

? or ?

? Import the network printers into the Management Console for MetaFrame and
assign them to users. Then allow only local printers to be auto-created
