Okay thank you James.  We use XenApp as well and I can take a look.  If I 
recall our printers are ThinPrint ready.  All of our printers (even those at 
users desks) are IP and on the network so there is no "local' printing here 
either.
 
My client are not in the domain currently so GPP is out unless I change that as 
well.

I find that using Citrix to manage the printing has been a damn sight better 
than using GPP. For some reason, particularly with 64-bit drivers, I find the 
logon screens hanging when logging on and applying group policy printer 
preferences. The event logs show lots of spurious "access denied" errors. 
Citrix seems to work pretty well using their builtin policies, and their 
universal drivers if absolutely necessary.

Unfortunately we don't have any locally-attached printers, but we use Excalibur 
for managing our thin client devices, which as I remember has some policies 
available for mapping local printers (using ThinPrint, I think). This may be 
able to achieve what you require.

For those of you using thin clients, how do you address printing? We use Wyse 
thin clients for our training rooms. We now have a need to provide printing to 
local printers/copiers. Usually I give users access via GPO preferences. How 
does one do this for thin clients having limited disk space anyway?
