Yes, your post made it to the list.I was using QB as an example. The problem
is not exclusive to QB as it's a problem with every application that we have
setup this way. I'm aware of the 54 character limitation for printers but
that's not the issue on this one.

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
