Ah, yeah for the most part everyone has a local printer.  I bet you are right 
though, if I forced network IP based printing it would probably work fine.

I run crystal reports on Windows 2000 SP3 with Cirtix MetaFrame XP FR1 and
have no problems and printing works great, the "but" is I don't allow
printing to local printers, only networked printers.  But this has been our
practice for awhile.

Subject: **SPAM-Phrase** [THIN] Crystal Reports on Citrix

Hi All,

I've got some planning to do for 2005 and I'm looking at the cost of some
licenses, plus buying new workstations, yeah it gets expensive fast.

Anyway, about 2 or 3 years ago my client attempted to move to a completely
thin environment only to be stopped by two applications.  One application
over the last few years is now working through Citrix, although not perfect.
The other application's name is ForeFront (www.dexterchaney.com) and is the
accounting software.  This application works well but the only problem is
printing Crystal Reports through Citrix, it works on some reports but not
others.  I attempted to fix this for a long time but could never figure out
why some reports worked yet others didn't.  The people that make the program
will not assist at all and say that their product is not compatiable with
Citrix or TS.  My question is this, I ran this test on Windows 2000 running
Citrix MF 1.8.  Windows 2003 is out and Citrix <whatever> is out now.  Has
the printing improved?  I know there is a Universal Printer Driver, but does
anyone push Citrix on Crystal Reports?  Has anyone experienced Crystal
Report type problems on MF 1.8 that were fixed in later versions of Citrix?

If I can get this program to run on Citrix I can save a ton of money and
make managing this network a hole heck of a lot easier.

Gunnar
