XenApp 6.x Session Printer creation is SLOW

[lucstegerman]

Dear All,

I have the following issue on a Windows 2008 R2 Server with Xenapp 6 or 6.5

If I assign session printers to the users it tooks 10 to 20 seconds per printer if the printer is connected.

I noticed that if I manually install printers on one of the Citrix servers by browsing to the printserver and double clicking on the shared printer, it says "downloading driver" for each printer I install, even if the printer being installed uses a driver that has already been installed. I compared this to our old 2003 environment, and connecting to a shared printer that uses a driver that is already installed is instantaneous.

can someone help me?

Best Regards,

Luc
