XenApp Session Printer Registry Key Location

Citrix XenApp Session Printer Registry Location.



Corrupt drivers in Citrix xenapp can often lead to printers repeatedly being included into user session that should not be included. They are from past connection sessions and are "stuck" in the registry and part of the users profile.


As I have experienced, even when the driver is repaired, the printers still show up in the user session when they aught not to be.


The location where these printers are defined is the following:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Print\Printers


If this key looks familiar to you it's because it's the location in the registry where local printers live. Session printers are local printers for the user who is logged into the server and has started the published application even if the printers are network printers.
