<p>Today we had printer issues with some of our Citrix servers in the XenApp v5.0 farm. Printers were not automatically mapped in Citrix session.</p>
<p>We have discovered that <b>Print Spooler</b> was stopped on those Citrix servers. Once we started the &#8216;<b>print spooler</b>&#8216; service the problem wasn&#8217;t solved.</p>

<p>We have checked the System Log on one of the problematic Citrix server and we discovered that the <b>Citrix Print Manager Service</b> was stopped also because this service depends on the <b>Print Spooler</b> service. <!--more--></p>

<p>Once we started the Citrix Print Manager Service, printers were successfully mapped once the user logs off and then logs back on to the Citrix.</p>
