I have ~500 users who will be working from home and I need to make the printer setup easy. Does anyone have experience with some of the third-party printer products (i.e. Screwdriver)? Or any great ideas.

thanks

If the users will be printing to their home printers then make sure you also have the same drivers of their individual home printers installed on your server ( metaframe server). this can cause a lot of problems if the drivers mismatch or you don't have them.
I think you have to only setup the server to use the users default printer in which case the server gets the details from the user when logging in and then selects the appropriate driver locally to be the same.

This is what we are doing now. What I am trying to avoid is having to install 300 printer drivers on the Citrix servers. We have been testing a couple 3rd party products but I am hesitate to use anything untried. thanks
