I have used Thinprint,Uniprint and screwdrivers(from tricerat)
Thinprint and screwdrivers work a lot better then uniprint does.
It all depends on the clients that you are going to be supporting. If they
are all Win clients Screwdrivers is a much better choice and a lot less
administrative overhead. If you are supporting Mac, OS2, linux...etc thin
print is defintely the way to go since screw drivers doesn't have anything
other than win32 support

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 the=20 other mainline solutions like Screwdrivers, etc?
I would like some real world input from the guys who actually support
these=20 products rather than just the typical sales/marketing paraphenalia.
Thanks=20 all!
