WHITE PAPER CITRIX COMPATIBILITY FOR THE SAMSUNG MULTIXPRESS 6345N PRINTER
Test Scenarios
The tests included several test scenarios designed
to verify the compatibility of the Samsung
MultiXpress 6345N with Citrix. The test scenarios
include the following:
• Auto Creation of Client Printers
• Citrix Universal Printer Driver
• Client Driver Compatibility
• Using Session Printers
• Replicating Printer Drivers
• Mapping Client Printer Drivers
• Verifying Client Driver Properties
• Using a Network Print Server
• Shadowing Client Printers
• Using Driver Features
• Using the Interface
• Using Printer Policies
• Printing from a Server
• Using Driver Policies
• Installing Printer Drivers.
Auto Creation of Client Printers
Description
The Auto Creation feature displays the client
machine printers on the server during an ICA
connection. The server users can print from these
auto-created client printers. When a user logs on
to a server farm, Citric creates their configured
printers in the session automatically, without
requiring an installation of the printer drivers or
printers located on the client system.
Test Methodology
The lab connected the Samsung MultiXpress
6345N printer to a client using a USB cable and
they installed the printer drivers on the client. They
made an ICA connection from the client to the
server. All of the client printers in were auto-
created on the server. The lab printed from the
server using the auto-created client printers.
Observation
The Samsung MultiXpress 6345N printer was
successfully auto-created, and there were no
printing issues using the PCL6 and PS drivers.
Citrix Universal Printer Driver
Description
Citrix uses the Citrix Universal Printer Driver to auto-
create printers on the server when the native
printer driver is not available from the client.
The Citrix Universal Printer Driver supports the
following printer control languages:
• PostScript (PS)
• PCL5C
• PCL4
Test Methodology
The lab connected the Samsung MultiXpress
6345N printer to a client using a USB cable and
they installed the printer driver on the client. They
made an ICA connection from the client to the
server. They did not install the Samsung
MultiXpress 6345N printer driver on the server.
Observation
Citrix successfully used the Citrix Universal Printer
Driver to auto-create the driver on the server. The
lab printed to the Samsung MultiXpress 6345N
printer from the server using this driver and
experienced no issues.
