I have had far fewer issues with the view client, and I prefer the v1.6 over the 1.7 or above. These are Ricoh enterprise class printers.Īny and all help would be appreciated in either of these matters. I am able to define a printer by IP address or FQDN, but all attempts always results in the printer printing the Postscript code and not the print job. The Mac is not joined to the domain, is unable to see any printers, and I have to roll the printer add by hand. Lastly, and this is not a VDI issue per se, when I connect my Macbook to the corporate network via Ethernet or wireless, I am just flat unable to print to only of the printers on the corporate network. On more than one occasion I was unable to restart the desktop without intervention from my sys admin.
But it doesn't always disconnect cleanly. The client appears to disconnect when the Macbook goes to sleep. I use the Macbook display, one HDMI connected monitor and one monitor connected via a Thunderbolt to DVI adapter. I find no way to assign the VDI desktop to a single workspace or monitor. The VDI desktop consumes all of the connected displays, be it 1, 2 or 3 displays. I use the VMWare Horizon Client (version 3.5.2) to connect to corporate VDI desktops.
