Did my post not make it to the list?  QuickBooks cannot see any printer
name over 54 characters.  You must factor in the additions to a printer
name that Citrix adds, "(from XXX) in session YYY" as part of those 54
characters.

The apps are published on a different server.

Are the apps published on the same server or on a different server?

We publish locked down desktops to our users. Users use a local computer
with locally install printers. When the user logs into their published
desktop their printers are auto-created and use the UPD. That all works
like a champ. The issue we're having is that we also publish
applications via the PNagent through that published desktop and those
printers aren't being auto created in that published application. 

 

Users login to their published desktop some applications are installed
locally and then the "one-offs" are published and accessed via the
PNagent (so that the icon shows up on their desktop/start menu). It's
all pretty seamless and works well. 

 

For instance MS Office is installed locally and we publish QuickBooks (I
hate that program!). QuickBooks launches fine and it works as expected.
The problem comes when they want to print from QuickBooks. None of their
printers show up as being available within QuickBooks. Does anyone have
a way/trick to make the users' printers show up in the published
application? 

 

Thanks!

Chris
