I have been using it some. Not all the facny features mind you, but just
the in-band ICA printing.=20

Its been pretty stable but works pretty well. The only caveat (like most
of these print solutions) is printing PDF's. If you go to print a PDF
the thing cant handle the embedded fonts, so the user gets gibberish.
But if you change the print type to print as an image it works. The
problem with this work around is that the resolution goes down some on
the final document and when printing as an image the size of the spooler
file is HUGE>

Other than that I have liked the product. Good compression.

If you want, e-mail me off list and I will hook you up with their CEO.

One of the clients I am working at is looking at purchasing Thinprint
for a=20
Citrix printing solution for WAN based users.  Do any of you have any=20
feedback on the dependability and functionality of this product versus

other mainline solutions like Screwdrivers, etc?

I would like some real world input from the guys who actually support

products rather than just the typical sales/marketing paraphenalia.
Thanks=20
