Hi again thanks for the answer.
I tried what You suggested but no luck yet, might just be me missunderstanding
though.
This ctx_explorer.exe does not seem to be a standard application, I cant find
it on my citrix servers at least. Tried searching for it on google also but no
hits.
I also opened the folder that I created locally on the server and it showed me
all the printers I had to select from but I could still see the add printer
wizard, is this how it will look even when published correctly?

I have an even better way
Create a folder
Say D:\Printers.{2227A280-3AEA-1069-A2DE-08002B30309D}
Publish this folder with CMC using CTX_Explorer.exe /n,
/root,D:\Printers.{2227A280-3AEA-1069-A2DE-08002B30309D}
Believe this will help.

Subject: [THIN] SV: Selecting default printer
I have made a startmenu three wich links to each printer. each link is in fact
a link to con2prt.exe with the right parameters to connect a printer as the
default.
Eksample: \\server\share\CON2PRT.EXE /cd \\printserver\printer
This has redused our supportcalls regarding printer connecton by 99%.

Emne: [THIN] Selecting default printer
Hi,
I know that this question has been up before but so far I haven't found a
sufficient answer when searching through various forums and the thinlist
archive.
We are using MetaFrame XPe FR2 (SP3) on top of Windows 2000 with SP2 and
appropriate hotfixes.
We have users that need to be able to set their default printer in the Terminal
services environment. The most preferable solution for us would be to publish
the printers folder and we have also tried that with good results however we
don't want them to be able to see the add printer wizard or at least not be
allowed to run the add printer wizard.
Is there a way to remove/hide the add wizard via GPO or similar?
Or is there even a separate application, a modified verison of the printers
folder that we can publish that will accomplish the same thing, which is
letting them chose which printer they want as their default and nothing else?
This is starting to be a real problem for us since we have a few applications
that wont let You chose which printer You want to print from but rather assumes
You want printouts on Your default printer.
Thanks in advance
Niclas
