On my Citrix (Metaframe XPe sp3 fr3) server, there is a massive build-up of events regarding printers. There's an event 2 "Printer Client\<clientname>#\<printername> [UPD:PCL5c] was created", followed by an event 9 (Printer Client\<clientname>#\<printername> [UPD:PCL5c] was set.)

Sometimes they are informational events, but about half of the time they are warnings. It looks like it's a normal event of saying "You have a local printer at your client and I will make a printer session for it now", but since there are warning events amongst them and the fact that there are about 3500 of them since last week, I'm growing weary.

Does anyone have a clue on if this is normal and if not, how to stop the spam?

Thanks in advance

Thank you Mitchero for your reply. I will most certainly use this option.
This doesn't, however, explain why some of the events are warnings instead of informations...
