All printing rules - usage of drivers, what printers are mapped from user session is done by Policies (Citrix XenApp Advanced Configuration)
and Printer management. What configuration you have here ?

Also if you have problem in Terminal services crashing you must solve this problem too.

If you look to the Printers and Faxes you can see in Comments column text Autocreated - only this printers are autocreated. In the event log
on server in System log you can see what driver was used for autocreated printer. If you would like to use exact mapping user printer/server driver then you must use mapping feature in Printer management in Citrix Xenapp Advanced Configuration console.
First: recognize what driver is used for this problematic printer
Second: try to use Citrix Universal Printer driver instead by mapping this driver to printer. Let me know I can help you in setting.
Thanks for your informaiton . now let me check as how to clean to setup the printer in our citrix server. I have enclosed again our server event log error message.
I want setup as below
we  have 3 remote access need connect to our citrix server
Q:  - is need create 3 x Citrix universal printer map to each office local printer IP address.
     -  after how to disable auto create printer for client
     -  force print out colour as black. ( because I found some of print out via our sercer the sizevery big.

User generated imagehere you must setup printer driver mapping - client driver value must be exactly same like text in your error message - Broather MFC-7420 USB Printer, in server driver value you can choose one from drivers installed on server. For other printers the same step. This serve client driver mapping.
If your remote offices are not permanently connected (you are not able to ping anytime the network printer in remote office LAN) then you must use printing by autocreated printer.
