Well, after a day of fiddling around with this Lexmark X6170, I'm going to
call it quits.
So strange, I have the right printer mapping, I see the local drive speak
out "Printing Started!" then I see the job queue up on my local Printers
Control Panel applet. Then I hear "Printing Complete!" I then see the job
being deleted (as if it's done sending it to the printer's buffer) ....
But nothing prints... not even a whine from the printer.
Has anyone tried using any of those universal drivers like ScrewDriver on an
issue like this?

All their corporate printers (like Optra based ones) work fine. But all
the cheapo ones you can get at Walmart do not work at all. If you add
all the time people spend trying to make these printers work and you do
the math, you will see your company spent WAY more than what the printer
is worth on your time (if you spend 8 hours troubleshooting printers and
come up with nothing, you probably cost more than US$ 240 on your effort
- assuming you make US$ 30 per hour what is low on the industry - and
the printer is worth US$ 100...). The problem is admins never tell their
bosses they wasted hours and hours and came up with nothing... This is a
hidden cost most companies do not even know. :-)
That is why I always say a printing solution for TS pays for itself in a
short period of time...

I've never gotten a lexmark to work under TS. BTW, the Dell brand A9xx
printers are made by Lexmark, and they don't work, either.

I am almost sure this printer (and many other end-user type printers
from Lexmark) is NOT supported under TS and what I mean by that is it
does NOT work at all, no matter which mapping you pick.

OK, when I run the printcfg.exe utility, I do see the printer listed. I
then click on Connect and it now appears as an available printer.
However,
when it is done spooling, nothing comes out of the printer... no noise,
no
garbled printout... nothing.
My printer driver name is listed exactly as what the tool shows "Lexmark
X6100 Series"
If I select my HP LJ 4 on LPT1, it shoots out just fine.
Did I fail to mention that this is a USB printer? The port is called
USB001
What next? We're getting closer!

If the printer is not showing showing up as an autocreated printer then
=3D3D
more than likely the driver name has a spelling mismatch. Remember that
=3D3D
mapping is case sensitive and must match exactly. Usually when I have a
=3D3D
problem with a printer I execute the Client printer configuration =3D3D
application which will display all the client printers with the driver =
=3D
=3D3D
name as the Citrix client sees it. This will allow you to get the
correct =3D3D
name and use it in your mapping. The utility is a normally available =
=3D3D
Citrix utility printcfg.exe located the System32 directory on a defualt
=3D3D
install. Publish it and run it from a machine with the printer defined.

Were your hp's all in one's? I've never been able to get one of those
to work. Would be interested to know how you did this.

Hi everyone,
Our IT department has started rolling out Lexmark X6170 All-In-One
printers
in replacement for dead HP/Epsons. Does anyone know the compatibility
entry
in the Printer Support file? We tried "Lexmark X6100 Series" =3D3D3D
"Lexmark
Optra" but the printer failed to show up in the published application.
