Also, and I must say that my Advanced Print Manager 4.0 will add a GUI
around configuring the UPD key I just sent.   :-)  Makes it really
easy...

Shameless, eh?  :-)

John,

 

I don't recommend deleting the driver.  It won't cause you any issues
but it is not needed.  Check this out: 

 

The Citrix Universal Print Driver has the following registry entries: 

The key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Citrix\UniversalPrintDrivers\

*         Value:DriverList 

*         Data of Type REG_SZ: PCL4;PS;PCL5c.

 

If you remove PCL5c, the printer is mapped as PCL4 and if you remove
PCL4, the printer is mapped as PCL5c.    

 

If you leave only PS, no printer is mapped. The "PS" universal driver is
intended for use with UNIX Clients, where Postscript is the default
printer control language.

 

 

So for you I would edit the above key to read PCL4;PS  

 

Make sense?  Hope it helps,

Subject: [THIN] PCL5C UDP

 

We recently upgraded from MF FR2 to Presentation Server 3.0.  The new
UDP does not work for us.  I am wondering how I could force these
servers to use the old Citrix PCL4 Universal Print Driver.  Looks like I
might be able to just delete the HP 4500 PCL driver from each server.
Seems like there should be more to it then that.

 

What says you?
