View products this document applies to Citrix Printing Tool 3.1 Created Date : 10/01/2009 Description Citrix Printing Tool 3.1 helps configuring and troubleshooting the Citrix Printing subsystem on XenApp, XenApp Online Plugin, and XenDesktop. Quick list of features : When run on a XenApp server (4.0,4.5,5.0): • Configures the advanced features for the Citrix Print Service (DefaultPrnFlags, Citrix Universal Printer properties, font handling, and so on). • Displays information about the important DLLs and EXE files related to Citrix printing subsystem. • Displays active policies for the ICA sessions in the farm (Note: on 4.5 and 5.0/2003, it requires fix #218994 currently being validated). • Re-installs the Citrix Universal Print Driver (UPD) v3 driver (Win2000 and Win2003 systems only). • Event log review: displays the printing related events from the farm servers’ event logs and links to related Citrix Knowledge Base articles when required. • With the /passthrough switch, the ICA client tab is available on the server. • The server list is listed in alphabetical order. When run on a Desktop Delivery Controller (XenDesktop 3.0): • Configures the DefaultPrnFlags implemented in the Citrix Print Service for the Virtual Desktop Agent (Virtual Desktop Agent) and pushes them to the VDAs. When run on machine with XenApp Online Plug-in: • Clears the retained printer properties. • Enables client side debug mode for EMF and XPS printing. • Forces the local printer settings into the ICA session. • Forces the “old” printing path for 10.x and 11.x clients.
