Yusuf A.May 8, 2026C is the right call here. When you already have a session printing policy in place for that user group, you just go back into that same policy and configure the printer settings to default to monochrome, because Citrix applies those settings at session launch and users get the behavior you define right there without needing to touch the registry or swap drivers.
Carlos M.May 10, 2026Yup, just make sure your policy priority is set so the session printing policy actually wins over any conflicting GPO or auto-created client printer settings, otherwise the monochrome default gets overridden at logon and you end up chasing your tail.
Carlos M.Apr 29, 2026C is right. When you already have a session printing policy in place, you modify that same policy to set the printer defaults, including monochrome, rather than touching the registry or creating something new, because the policy applies at logon and pushes those settings to the mapped printers for that group.
Bao N.May 15, 2026Thought A made sense until I remembered session policies control driver defaults directly.
