Test methodology An HP LaserJet/Business Inkjet/Designjet/Deskjet printer was attached to the client system using a parallel cable or USB cable. The printer was installed on the client system and drivers for the printers were downloaded from the HP Driver Support website. The client system connected to the Citrix XenApp™ server farm. Each type of printer setting that is configurable by printer policies was checked to verify operability with the HP printers and drivers and to ensure that the client could print successfully.

Test methodology
An HP LaserJet/Business Inkjet/Designjet/Deskjet printer was attached to the client system using a
parallel cable or USB cable. The printer was installed on the client system and drivers for the printers
were downloaded from the HP Driver Support website.
The client system connected to the Citrix XenApp™ server farm. Each type of printer setting that is
configurable by printer policies was checked to verify operability with the HP printers and drivers and
to ensure that the client could print successfully.

Session printers
Description
With Citrix XenApp™ Server, policy-based session printers are defined as those printers attached
locally to a server running Citrix XenApp™ Server or to a shared printer that was imported from a
network print server. When the Session printers policy is applied to a user and the user logs on to a
server farm, the printers that are configured for that user are created in the session automatically
without requiring an installation of the printer drivers or printer on the client’s system.
Test methodology
HP printers were attached to Citrix XenApp™ Servers using parallel cables, or were installed by
creating TCP/IP ports and connecting to the printers using Jetdirect. These printers were configured for
multiple users. Drivers for the printers were downloaded from the HP Driver Support website.
The client system connected to the XenApp™ server farm, which verified that the shared HP printers
were available in the user’s session and that the client could print successfully to the shared farm
printers.
