An organization needs fewer printers created during session startup, so that sessions start faster. Which policy allows the Citrix Administrator to achieve this goal?

Luis F.May 25, 2026

The correct answer is C, Auto-Create Client Printers. This policy controls exactly how many client printers get mapped when a session launches, and by default Citrix tries to auto-create all client printers which slows down logon time significantly. You can change it to only auto-create the default printer, or even set it to not auto-create any, which cuts that startup overhead way down. The other options do different things, like B just controls whether client printer redirection is allowed at all, and A is about saving printer settings between sessions, neither of which directly reduces how many printers get created on startup.

Auto-Create Client Printers is the right pick here, though I'd say B trips people up because disabling Client Printer Redirection altogether also reduces printers at logon, but that's a blunt instrument and not what the question is after. The Auto-Create policy is the precise control that lets you dial back how many client printers get created at session startup, so C is correct.

I went with B first because "Client Printer Redirection" sounded like the master switch for the whole printer situation, but then I remembered that policy just controls whether redirection is allowed at all, not how many printers actually get created at login. The Auto-Create Client Printers policy is the one that lets you dial back which printers get provisioned during session startup, so that is what directly cuts down that startup time.
