The new company I am working for is lookiing to me for leadership on
recommending new printer models for the purpose of Citrix compatibilty.
At my previous job Laserjet 4050 and entire LJ 4 and LJ 5 family proved to
be super with Citrix.
After researching the past few days and going thru some whitepapers put out
by both HP and Citrix over the last few years I have come up with the
following models that seem to have recieved enough testing by HP to say they
feel they can endorse these models. I will list some models which seem to
get repeated mention as having tested reliably for both Citrix and TS. The
lists for both are similar but not identical but I am trying to recommend
models which seem to get repeated testing on both Citrix and TS. I know in
their whitepapers HP says that although they are testing only certain models
the results indicate a broader range of compatibility as the drivers and
printing technology is shared by other models not per se mentioned or tested
for the purpose of the whitepaper. I cannot help but think that HP just may
be putting their "best foot forward" so to speak when they list models they
claim have tested well with Citrix/TS. Feel free to make comments if you
have had experience which is either negative or positive. Also if you feel I
have missed listing an HP model that you have found to be super reliable
please let me know. I apologize in advance if I am contravening some kind of
rule for discussion of vendor preference.
I am just trying to get the best for the Citrix environment in order to
proactively limit issues in the future and is why I call it the million
dollar question. The list:
LJ 1200, LJ 2200, LJ 4000, LJ 4 group, LJ 5 group, LJ 6 group, LJ 4050, LJ
4500, LJ 5000, LJ 8000, LJ 8100.
