System-crashes occur (not all times) on our NT Terminal server (NT4.0 SP6) when users print to a Hp Laserjet 6P.
The driver which is installed for this printer is the Hp Laserjet 6P/6MP - Enhanced.
Could it be this driver is not compatible with the terminal server (citrix) platform ?

I would try using a standard LJ4. The only real difference between them all is the bells and whistles.

although we are using that driver also, as far as I know only the hp4 serie driver is officially supported.
try to use the hp4l driver first. then if it worked most likely the hp6 driver is corrupted,
reinstall he driver and service pack, if thatdoesnt help keep using the hp4l driver.

I'm running a Citrix farm, and through experience, I've found that HP drivers do not get on with TS. Only use the drivers that are on the TS disk, never use the HP driver disk. The chances are that the DLL's are not fully compatible with TS.

In general I use Laserjet 4 or 4 Plus for laserjet printers, and 660c drivers for and deskjet printers. As said by the 1st answer the only difference will be the lack of fancy options, but hey your system will be stable!!

Good Luck,

Steve
