Does anyone publish the Printers folder as a published app? If so, what is the advantage in doing so?

thanks in advance,
 
Hi,

Try:-

C:\Winnt\System32\Control.exe Printers

Depends if you have published desktop or not! But would allow your users to configure their printers from within Citrix.

Cheers,
Carl.
 
This works brilliant follow to the letter :)

1.
Create the following folder:

C:\Printers.{2227A280-3AEA-1069-A2DE-08002B30309D}

Note: This folder MUST be created in the root of one of the MetaFrame server drives. When you press Enter, the folder icon changes to a printer icon.

2.
Create a published application with the following properties:

Command line: "Path of IEXplore.exe" C:\Printers.{2227A280-3AEA-1069-A2DE-08002B30309D}

Working directory: The path where IExplore.exe is located.

Note: You may get path error and fail to access published printers folder. If so modify the command line to include %* for example.

Command line: "Path of IEXplore.exe" %*C:\Printers.{2227A280-3AEA-1069-A2DE-08002B30309D}
