problems accessing printers over citrix

[Mad Scientist Jr]

I have a vb.net app that is running over citrix, and am trying to grab
a list of printers on the user's systems, however I am getting empty
names:

'For Each sPrinterName In
PrintDocument1.PrinterSettings.InstalledPrinters.Item(0)
'For Each sPrinterName In
PrintDocument1.PrinterSettings.InstalledPrinters

however, I am able to see the correct number of printers:

'MsgBox(PrintDocument1.PrinterSettings.InstalledPrinters.Count.ToString
& " printers in this system")

therefore I think I am just using the wrong object path. Can someone
say what the correct way to see the printer names?

Thanks

Have you tried something along these lines?

Dim i, NumPrinters As Integer
NumPrinters = System.Drawing.Printing.PrinterSettings.InstalledPrinters.Count
For i = 0 To NumPrinters - 1
Msgbox(
System.Drawing.Printing.PrinterSettings.InstalledPrinters.Item(i))
Next
