I think that is what the problem is, maybe I have not been explaining well. I don't think it is mapping any printers, I don't think my policy is even taking effect. I set it to map all client printers and to only use the Universal Print Driver if the regular driver is available and still the only driver that will come up is XPS unless I add on at session time.

In essence, make sure that printer mappings are working at all.

On my 2000 and XP Farm (Which we are slowly retiring) we get plenty of events on print activity. If I bring up Notepad and I select print, it has the XPS printer as my default. It also gives me the option to install a printer (Which I don't want to provide to my users). If I choose "Add Printer" it will install the printer I choose and if I log out and log back in, the printer now appears along with the XPS printer. Neither of these printers are my default printer. It just doesn't seem like any of the policies are being applied. It all seems to be reliant upon the user profile and nothing is coming from the settings for the Universal Print Driver.

Once the Policies are setup, the UPD works great. You should only need to install the driver to those printers that don't work well with the UPD. Install mode is neither needed nor required for installation of printer drivers.

If I go into the Presentation Server Console the drivers show up for the printer. So I don't see why it won't map. I didn't put the server into install mode for any of the printer driver installs. Is this required. The policy is applied to domain users. Is there anything misconfigured in the policy itself?

Do a change user /install and install the drivers of the printers you want. Then do a change user /execute from the command prompt after the installation. Once the printer is installed delete the printer from the printers control panel. The drivers will then be available on the server and should load the printer for the user. You can then use the citrix control panel to migrate the printer drivers to other servers if you have a lot of them.

I had hoped once we got to the new farm my printing issues would subside. Short term at least, I have more issues instead of less. My guess is I don't have a strong enough understanding of the new system. I have rolled out Notepad as my first application and I can't seem to get anything but the XPS printer to show up. I have imported my 2 print servers successfully. I logged on the XenApp server as an admin and installed a couple of printers and when I log onto NotePad with the admin account the printers do show up, but that isn't an option for my user base. My policy settings are below (No other settings are defined): Printing Client Printers Auto-Creation - Enabled Auto-Create the client's default printer only Legacy client printers - Enabled Create dynamic session-private client printers Printer properties retention - Enabled Retained in user profile only Print job routing - Enabled Connect directly to network print server if possible Turn off client printer mapping - Disabled Drivers Native printer driver auto-install - Enabled Do not automatically install drivers Universal driver Use universal driver only Session printers - Enabled No printers defined Choose client's default printer: = Set default printer to the client's main printer I have tried to get XPS working http://support.citrix.com/article/CTX118554 Talks about XPS but this option isn't even available in the registry and I tried installing via http://www.brianmadden.com/blogs/gabeknuth/archive/2008/12/16/xenapp-5-feature-profile-citrix-universal-xps-printer-driver.aspx I'm stumped?
