Installation on Terminal or Citrix Server
A Citrix server can be configured to “auto-create” a printer or printers when a Windows client logs in.
This procedure makes the client’s Windows printers available within a Citrix session. If the appropriate
drivers do not reside on the Citrix server, the Citrix server substitutes a universal driver. The user can still
print, but many of the features associated with print drivers, such as accounting or booklet creation,
are unavailable.

To prevent this, install the X-GPD drivers on a Citrix server, or on all members of a Citrix server farm,
before clients that use local printers based on these drivers log in.

Note:
The driver name (string) on the clients must match the driver name (string) on the Citrix
server in order for the print driver to auto-create correctly during a Citrix session. If they do not
match, the user will get a universal driver with limited features.
