YEah so far everything looks good driverwise. the only ones i am worried
about is an OLFAXDRV driver and the Adobe acrobat drivers.

Yes.
Did you run PDManager and verify your driver compatibility and delete
drivers that did not belong?

Tried running the fixprnsrv but it just tells me there are no win2000
incompatible drivers installed. I am not running win2000. we are on Nt4.
is this a correct response from this util?

Get http://thethin.net/pdmanager.zip and check all the Printer drivers and
make sure that they are the proper compatible version and delete the ones
that should not be there. On the Windows 2000 server disk there is a utility
called FIXPRNSRV that will check to see that the drivers for your system are
the correct compatible ones. It is also downloadable from thethin.net at
http://thethin.net/fixprnsrv.zip You must extract this file using the exact
directory struction and run it.
This utility can be used on NT 4.0 and 2000 servers. Then have a look at
all the printing tips at:
http://thethin.net/tsdownload.cfm#print
I guarantee that you have a rogue driver out there someplace that is causing
your issues. You must be certain that you have Mappings for every possible
printer you have in the Citrix management console. If you don't know a
mapping for an HP laserjet just map it to the Laserjet 4 which usually
works. A deskjet can be mapped to the 660.
Always try to use windows native drivers where possible.
Set up an allowed only list in the CMC of printers under the printer
mappings.

We have several servers in a farm tha have started giving us problems. One
thing that happens is this. If you open the Printers folder, the CPU jumps
to 100% and the server basically locks up. No errors or anything in the
event vwr. Also the servers just stop responding. Randomly we loose the
ability to connect to them. They are all getting really slow. Its real
flaky. I can't find anything wrong with them that just jumps out at me and
there are no errors. Any got any ideas on this one?
