Matt,
I am so glad to see your post - we have the exact same problem, and
cannot seem to get around it.
We are using Windows 2003 with FR3. The problem is (we think) is that
we have a single seperate print server who spools all the jobs (shares
all the printers right) - and we publish the printers on the
printserver through a printer app on the citrix servers.
What we have noticed is that at times the printer list seems to take a
millisecond longer than normal to complete - so it shows the first
~60% of the list, then the rest.
We reccon that this split second delay causes TS to think the default
printer is missing, and immediately grab the next one it sees.
We can reproduce this problem 80% of the times, have tried configuring
the Network so it would be faster by disabling netbios, publishing the
printers in AD etc etc - we got happy when we were not able to
reproduce the problem after about 25 logons and logoffs, and then at
number 26 - POW - system chose its own printer!
This is such a disaster as our clients are complaining that their
confidential print jobs are comming out on printers in other
departments
Any fixes or suggestions guys?
Cheers
Eugen:what
