Thanks Mike.
Sounds like may have to map the printer manually within user session the old
fashioned way. Sounds like Metaframe 1.8 days. :)

There are numerous gotchas with importing print servers. Seen some of these
same issues with a client that imported their print servers. Mapping default
printer was one of the problems. Mapping through logon script is better way
if possible.

Assigning, a user, permission to the Imported Network Print Server does not
automatically ensure the user the right to actually print to the printer.
These permissions merely allow the user to autocreate the object within the
userâs profile.

Additionally, because the object is created within the context of the userâs
profile, the administrator cannot view these objects from the Citrix
Management Console or through the Printers folder. It may be necessary to
shadow a user in a desktop session to further troubleshoot this issue.

Check out CTX881017 for further info.

Sure there is an easy solution for this.
Have just begun to experiment with this feature as one site with a lot of
users on same local LAN as Citrix box. What I found though was if you import
a print server it brings in all the printers setup on that server - once I
assign users to a specific printer and create a Citrix policy to not map
local printers(I assumed this is way to do without reading any docs) users
print to these imported printers - trouble is they seem to default to using
the first printer listed among those imported even though I have not added
those users to the printer âlisted firstâ and I have added them to another
printer and they are included in the Citrix policy.
