The autocreation of printers is where XenDesktop automatically creates printers at the beginning of each user session. Both network printers and locally attached client printers can be autocreated. The autocreation of printers is dependent on the Session printers policy and the Printer driver mapping and compatibility policy.

If XenDesktop detects a new local printer connected to a user device during autocreation, it checks the server OS machine for the required printer driver. If a Windows-native driver is not available, XenDesktop uses the Universal Print Driver. This is the default setting.

Printers assigned through autocreation are based on the printers that are installed on the user device and the printers assigned through policies.

Use the Auto-create client printers policy to control autocreation. You can specify that all printers visible to the user device, including network and locally attached printers, are created automatically at the start of each session...
