If you have Citrix Support available, call them.

 

AppSense is an awesome company and suite of products.

Well, we have the x64 drivers installed and available

We didn't import any policies

That only leaves bad drivers (even though the printers all work fine), but
the problem is, we can't remove the policies now they are there. I read a
thread that said we will need to create a new farm database to get rid of
the bad policies, but that seems like drastic overkill to me. The solution
posted by the guy on The Ether doesn't do anything to help.

I'm leaving this gig in two weeks' time, but I'd rather get around these
issues before I left. I'm seriously considering redeploying AppSense to map
the printers, and letting the Citrix policies rot until their masters fix
them.

Some people are claiming different root causes:

 

Bad drivers

No x64 driver installed/available

Bad policy imported in from previous version

Is one such thread.

 

This guy claims to have a solution:

Please let me know what your solution is so I can add it to my knowledge.  I
plan on covering Citrix Policies with XenApp 6 in book #4 (currently half
way thru writing book #2).

 

Thanks

No, we just created them anew in the XenApp 6 farm

Did you use the XenApp Migration Tool to migrate your policies from a
previous version?

Is anyone else having serious problems with printing in Citrix XenApp 6.0?
We were creating Citrix policies to map session printers, but now, whenever
we try to add, edit or remove a policy, we get an error saying "paper size 1
is not a valid paper size. The policy could not be saved".

The annoying thing is, it happens even if you try to add a policy for
something different, such as USB redirection. It's almost as if every time
you save a policy it is enumerating every existing policy, and if anything
goes wrong, it just crashes and discards any changes. We can't disable
policies, remove them from groups, or even change anything. It's getting to
the stage now where I am starting to get a bit flustered, as we won't be
able to deploy any new printers. I'm starting to feel like the Citrix
session printing policy in XenApp 6 is just completely screwed, and there
aren't any signs of any hotfixes or rollups coming out.

Are any other early adopters suffering from this sort of problem? I'm
starting to wish we'd stayed with XenApp 5 for the moment, to be perfectly
honest
