Hello and welcome to my blog
I would like to dedicate my first technical post a significant improvement that was recently added to the functionality and session Printers proximity printing Citrix. In short, Citrix Session printers are network printers assigned by an administrator via the policy rule Session printers which is also the basis of proximity printing function that allows the creation of a printer preset workspace depending on where the user's connection is from.
policy rule Citrix session Printers and Proximity Printing feature was introduced with Citrix Presentation Server (CPS) 4.0 platform in 05. Since then, they have been widely adopted and used by many of our customers. Some printing functionality combines with the function / control of Citrix Smooth Roaming space to meet the mobile worker, for example, in hospitals where medical staff frequently move between workstations located in different pieces or parts of the hospital building.
Before the publication of this new enhancement that contains the code change needed to allow the removal of session printers while reconnecting session and a registry fix to control behavior, Session printers designed for a connected user from their first unit were postponed / added to the user's session that subsequently made smooth transferred via the mechanism Roaming / control Citrix space when the user logged in from another device. This is the default behavior. The idea behind that is to preserve the status of the printer for the user if they move to the first client device and want to use printers with the preferred parameters they may have set earlier . Unlike automatically created client printers, network printers assigned by administrators via the policy rule Session printers can not preserve the settings defined by the user after deletion. This could lead to many printer Session articles being accumulated in session for users who are often on the move and reconnect to different locations and client computers.
With the development in place, however, it is now possible to prevent this accumulation. It was first introduced with the hotfix XA650R02W2K8R2X64010 which was recently replaced by Hotfix Rollup Pack 3 for Citrix XenApp 6.5. Once the update is installed must implement the following modification of server-side register according to their needs:
1. Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE SOFTWARE Citrix Ica PrintingSettings registry key
2. Add REG_DWORD value named DeleteNetworkPrinters
3. Assign the desired value
-If value is 0, session printers will not be removed
-If the value is 1, session printers will be removed
.. - If the value is missing, session printers are deleted
