Using a PDF Printer with Citrix

speedy73 · 2005-12-15

Hello community,

we are running attain 3.7 under a citrix environment.
i want to archive some reports as pdf automatically. therefore i have set up a pdf printer on my citrix server, installed navisarchive and did the needed entries in the navision setup. unfortunately the navision setup shows the printer with a net port (i.e. \\servername\printername,NE00:). And here is the Problem. Each user sees the printer with a different net port. so if running the print job with an other user, the job will fail with the error message "printer not found".

has anyone a solution for this problem?

thanks for any help !

Wurde der Drucker lokal bei den Clients hinterlegt (Autocreated Client Printer) oder auf den Citrix Server-Farmen (Server)?

Wie hast du die zuordnung gemacht?

the printer was installed as local printer with a new local port on the server (which has the UNC-Path to the network printer)

Sorry, it was my mistake.
Before i've posted here, i was in a german forum.

I don't mind, I can read german.

But others might not understand you. :?

exist the same problem when you print out in the Notepad or Wordpad under citrix :?:

If not, starts a user the printing job direct per print dialog or print you out per

Report.runmodal(XXX, false, false,SalesHeader); :?:

NE port is solved for long time... http://www.mibuso.com/dlinfo.asp?FileID=25

You need only the modification in FindPrinter function...

Note:
In 4.0 the "ne" is not saved into the printer name anymore.

Yes, but this is all about 3.70... :-)

Of course, technical upgrade is the solution too...

Please solve issues via the forum, not via pm.

This way everyone can read it and future users that have the same error can solve it via the forum.
