World of EUC

I'm stumped by a recent rash of macOS (BYO/unmanaged) client mapped printer print failures lately.

Jobs are making it all the way to the endpoint (app creates the print job, Windows spools it, VDA sends it to CWA, CWA sends it to CUPS, but CUPS GUI on Mac endpoint is showing all jobs as cancelled.)

FWIW, we're still doing the "legacy" HP LaserJet 2800 PS print flow vs Citrix PDF/UPD printer.

Didn't the newer macs EOL PS printing?  I believe you have to go to PDF.

ahhhh that would be an RTFM that I would have missed if so

hrm so i reordered the printer driver preference to put PDF infront of PS...and now both work...

(this test was IGEL, since I don't have a Mac, but I asked service desk to test with our UAT Mac and it worked)
