Citrix XenDesktop environment needs print drivers updated daily
Then, the next morning (or after they log off/back on), their printer is still mapped but it shows 'Printer: Needs new driver'. If you choose update driver, it will go through the driver install again (pulling from the Print Server), but it doesn't solve the problem. What does solve the problem is to remove and add the printer again. Then, again, happy times until the user logs off and back on.
What's the deal? My gut is telling me that the drivers are being stored somewhere on the OS drive for the remainder of the session, then the user logs off and the VM is recycled so the driver is no longer there during their next session. But if that's the case, does that mean I have to pre-install every driver that a user might ever use on the master image?
Thanks!

A printer is a peripheral which makes a persistent human readable representation of graphics or text on paper or similar physical media. Traditional printers are being used more for special purposes, like printing photographs or artwork, and are no longer a must-have peripheral; 3D printing has become an area of intense interest, allowing the creation of physical objects. An image scanner is a device that optically scans images, printed text, handwriting, or an object, and converts it to a digital image. Hand-held scanners, where the device is moved by hand, have evolved from text scanning "wands" to 3D scanners used for industrial design, reverse engineering, test and measurement, orthotics, gaming and other applications.

Normally in my customers environments we only allow auto create printers with UPD enabled. Also I normally install the printer vendors supported printer driver and then map the printers required to their users via a Session Printer Policy.
