Configure the Citrix UPD printer
Use of Citrix Universal Printer Driver (Citrix UPD) ensures that all printers that are connected to the thin client can also be used
from a virtual desktop or application session without integrating a new printer driver in the data center. Citrix UPD is the base of
Citrix Universal Printer. It is an autocreated printer object that uses the Citrix UPD and is not tied to any specific printer defined
on the client.
About this task
This section describes how to configure the Citrix UPD usage on your thin client.
Steps
1. Connect a printer to the ThinOS client.
2. From the desktop menu, click System Setup > Printer.
