Error Accessing Printer Spooler with Citrix

All:

I am having one heck of a time figuring this one out.

My application creates PDF files using Ghostscript and the ps2pdf function. However on a client machine all works well. Once you get to Citrix though, the problems begin.

I finally got the Citrix server to run the reports (logged into the server itself) but when you run Citrix from a client machine using the Farm, I constantly get Error accessing printer spooler.

I have tried the following:

SET PRINTER TO DEFAULT

SET PRINTER TO NAME \\printer name

strPrinter = GetPrinter()


Now when I tried to set the report form ... prompt, I can set the printer but the report fails.

Anyone have any ideas? I have been trying to battle Citrix for some time now and I cannot figure this out. I can create Excel files with OLE and regular post script files with no problem, just when it comes to report forms is where I have trouble.
I originall used Adobe PDF Writer but that does not go well with Citrix when sharing with multiple users.

Thanks all for the help.
