Hi Folks, I wanted to pass this along for those who have not heard about these. There are a couple of Free ebooks out there that are pretty good that you all should check out. Both are being done on a chapter by chapter basis to keep you interested by RealTime Publishers. One of them is sponsored by New Moon and it is called "The Definitive Guide to Terminal Services." Every chapter I have read from this is excellent! It is at: http://www.newmoon.com/products/ebook/ The other one is sponsored by Citrix and is called the Definitive guide to Citrix Metaframe XP. (note the similarities in the titles, I'm not even going to touch this one though. At least we the users are the real benefactors of it all. LOL) At any rate the most recent chapter, Chapter 7 is written by Christa Anderson (of Windows 2000 Magazine Lore) and is about Printing in Metaframe XP. It is EXCELLENT and a highly suggested download. http://www.metaframebook.com/eBook.asp Here is a blurb about the latest chapter: If you?ve worked with server-based computing at all, your favorite task is probably managing printing?in roughly the same sense that your favorite pastime is having a root canal. Printing in a server-based computing environment is even more complicated than printing in a client-centric network. Not only do you have all the fun of installing and supporting printers, but you must also contend with the problems that arise from creating and printing from a shared computer. When you add support for mapping client-side printers to the mix, supporting printers in a server-based environment can really get problematic. This chapter will cover the following topics: How printing works in a server-based computing environment. The features of MetaFrame XP and FR1 that make it easier to manage printing and how to use those features, including: Importing network printers so that you can manage them from the Citrix Management Console. Assigning printers to people. Bandwidth throttling tools. Printer driver distribution. The universal printer driver in FR1 and what it can and can't do. How to selectively enable and disable automatic client printer mapping.
