You have to do that with a script on the Windows side


I have done it in the past but their default usb to serial that you get from igel has no driver per say, until you login to the Citrix farm. Not recognized on any machine


Are you redirecting the Adapter via USB Redirection?


Yes it’s usb to com and then using thinprint to set the printer and serial to com.


But is your Native USB Redirection setting redirecting it maybe into the session? Please disable it and retry:

Yeah I have them working on the ud3 lx models but they have a serial foot on them. So it’s a bit different config. And all other wireless and wireless devices that are allowed work.
