New Here ,

User has a Citrix virtual desktop with a USB HP printer connected to a Thin Client, and redirected into the Citrix desktop using the Citrix Universal Printer.

Prior to this version, opening a PDF and printing to that redirected printer presented no problem. On this most recent version it does with a quick "The document could not be printed" error and then it spits out a blank page(s).

HI, I also get an issue with Citrix re-directed printers with this latest patch. I have tried all things frrom Citrix, changed driver order, and Universal driver options.

I get exactly the same issue 

"The document could not be printed" error and then it spits out a blank page(s).

Any update on this Adobe, will it be fixed in next patch ?

Hi to every one,

we incurred the same error using the Citrix universal redirected local printer on terminal server. The Acrobat Reader DC is updated: 22.001.20142  

The problem is present undipendently from the Citrix Receiver version (from the older up to the last update). Just tryed print as image, open other PDF documents, etc. The unique way to print is using other PDF viewer.

Hi Davide

 

Hope you are doing well and sorry to hear that

 

Would you mind sharing the make and model of the printer you are using? Also please share the version of the Acrobat DC and the OS you are using?

To check the version of the Acrobat go to Help > About Acrobat and make sure you have the recent version 22.1.20142 installed. Go to Help > Check for updates and reboot the computer once.

 

Also, please go through the help page https://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/troubleshoot-pdf-printing-acrobat-reader.html and check

Hi Amal.
As I have written, we use Acrobat DC 22.1.20142 on terminal server (Windows 2012 R2 with all Microsoft patch updates). The default local printer present on a client that executes Citrix Apps is been exposed via a universal Citrix printer (as described here
). In our environment, this universal printer use x64, driver version 9.45.52.299. The driver version of the local printer doesn't affect this scenario.

Hi so we have the same problem with Acrobat on Citrix. Everytime you print it prints a blank Page.

It only happens with the latest version of Acrobat reader.

We use Server 2016 and we only publish Application to the users.

 

I have found if you go back to an older version it works but the Security problems with older version of Acrobat is a huge risk. I hope there is a fix soon,

Hi Guys so we have decided to start using Nitro as the default on our machine.

The problem is that Acrobat is not optimized for Citrix . It uses way to much memory and there is always something that does not work. Lets Monitor Nitro and see if that makes a diffrence.

Same exact issue here - I use gotomypc.com and when I attempt to print it does a quick "The document could not be printed" error and then it spits out a blank page(s).  Luckily I have nitroand that's actually a great .pdf program that doesn't give me this printing grief that Adobe has lately .. sure be good for adobe to get their fix done - the update today did not fix anything.

@Samuel25374323yjz8 it's a little bit of a waste of time... First Amal requested to upload the logs into the Adobe account and the platform won't share the file. After that, had shared in PM his email address, I've sented the email with all the attachments and he asks to use another cloud platform. Well, I think that Adobe support still abusing a little bit of our time and availability for a bug that should be solved 3 years ago...

I recommended Nitro Not the best solution and they are now in talks with Nitro to do a Trail.

Acrobat you guys need to start looking at this problems there is a lot of product that is getting very close to what you guys are doing. Please get this fixed .

I have the same issue for a terminal server farm used by 200-300 Users each day. Was hoping, the August Update 2022.002.20191 would provide a fix, but unfortunately not.

We have the same issue printing with adobe reader and acrobat pro, we have reported to adobe in several occasions in the past 3yrs, and we were informed by Adobe Engineering that adobe doesn't support virtual environments, reason why there is no fix. so we have opted to use Foxit Reader, which free, and very lite app, and prints very fast.
