Not sure whether this is just citrix or TS related but...
I have some printers that have been added from a remote session and even as admin i can't delete them. anyone got any thoughts on how to remove them - a reboot doesn't work and they are persistant for anyones session

it's hard to convey five-dimensional ideas in a language evolved to scream defiance at the monkey in the next tree
 
irweazel,
If it is Citrix MPS 4.0 you will have to take ownership of the printer. Just right click on it and go to the properties, security tab and take ownership of it.

After you have ownership, give yourself full rights to the printer and delete it.

You might also want to stop the Print Spooler and go out and clean your printers folder (usually under %systemroot%\system32\spool)

I hope that helps.
