Overview
Printing is a very important aspect of every Citrix infrastructure, which is not well understood and a common cause of issues. Citrix XenApp and XenDesktop offer a variety of features to enable administrators to successfully integrate printing in almost every scenario. Choosing the most appropriate printing configuration for your organization helps to simplify administration and improve the user experience. In order to successfully design a printing infrastructure it is vital to understand the available technologies as well as their benefits and limitations.
This planning guide is intended to be a guideline during the printing strategy decision process, but it cannot provide turnkey solutions that fit for every scenario due to the complexities of each organization’s environment and user requirements.
