Are they getting a second session on the same server?
If so then it is due to the new session dynamic naming for printers.
We had the same problem make sure that the apps all use the same Client
setting as far as Screen Size, Color Depth and if Sound enabled.
This fixed our problem last Friday and we have not had the same problems
today.
Another fix is to enable create old-style client printers in your
printer policy under - printing - Client Printers - Legacy client
printers

Are you positive that it's only happening with mapped client
printers?
Are these staff using network printers as well?
Can they access the printers from control panel? If so, do they
disappear from there also?
Are they running a published desktop or a bunch of individually
published applications (so closing and reopening the app would actually
create a new session)?

Citrix have just released a hotfix for all sorts of PS4 printing
issues. Might be worth a try.

Sadly we've trained our users to "deal with it" for
now...sucks. We're currently evaluating Thinprint as while the UPD in
4.0 is a huge leap forward in the printing subsystem, it's still subpar.
Will let you know how that goes. At face value it seems that Thinprint
is a waste of money at this point given the state/features of the UPD
but all of the little issues with the UPD add up to make for an overall
unacceptable experience for our users.

I'm continually having issues with users randomly
loosing their mapped printers inside an application. It can occur in
any and every application. Adobe Reader, Office Apps, some of my
business level apps. It occurs even with client 9.150. I'm on PS4.0
with a few printing related hotfixes. I still have to roll out R01.
I'm using actual printer drivers from HP and Dell, mostly all PCL, so no
UPD.
The fix is always the same. Have the user close down
their application and re-open it. If there are multiple apps running on
the server with the app that has lost the printer, they may need to
close those applications as well?
I've got nothing wacky going on with the way I'm running
the farm or printer mappings. It's all pretty standard and almost as
basic as it can be, in my opinion.
Is this just something I need to get over and expect to
just always occur, or is there same way to solve this complete or make
it occur far less then it does?
