Citrix Workspace App Catalina

This would be appear to be a Citrix -  compatibility issue and what I have read on the Citrix blogs and forums leads me to believe that Citrix engineers need to upgrade and release new versions of the certificate. I have a similar issue and got a temporary workaround by using Chrome (Google browser) and downloading the Citrix workspace extension for it. (None exists for Safari yet) and my applications were able to run. I had to learn how to juggle between multiple applications as Option + Tab does not work but did it by using different window sizes and desktops and switching as necessary. Hope someone else can be helped as well.

By the way - Citirix did update its app right after Catalina was in general release and new(er) workspace app icon is blue as compared to the prior black one. That is the one you want to download if you are going to try the Chrome route.

What is supported

  • Standalone scanners.
  • Dedicated virtual channel for printing. For more information, see https://support.citrix.com/article/CTX137939 and https://docs.citrix.com/en-us/citrix-virtual-apps-desktops/printing.html
  • UPD postscript printer drivers, provided the following conditions are met :
    1. The printer driver is installed on the macOS client.
    2. Core printing on macOS can work with the vendor-provided driver successfully.
    3. Changes in macOS impact the printing behavior (core printing APIs on macOS). Core Printing APIs have not been updated lately and might be prone to errors. For example, we had issues with double-sided printing on Catalina, which were resolved in Big Sur.
WindowsApp

What is not supported

  • Multi-function scanners. A multifunction is a composite device that has more than one interface.
  • USB device splitting feature in GUSB virtual channel. Citrix Workspace app on Mac does not have the capability to differentiate between different interfaces of a composite device. This problem is not limited to our app, but printing on macOS in general. For more information, see https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5244577. On some printers, when printed from a session in Citrix Workspace app on Mac, printing is always either duplex or single sided depending on the printer. It ignores the Duplex/Single-sided settings issued from the VDA. This is a limitation on the macOS. When using the core printing Apple framework, macOS printing is being overridden by the printing settings in the CUPS printing system. This is a new behavior on the macOS 10.15 (Catalina) onwards. As a workaround, change the settings in CUPS printing system on macOS. You have to manually set the Duplex/Single-sided settings on CUPS.
  • Printer redirection through third party drivers.

External dependencies for printing (Apple/HP)

  • macOS drivers for creating the print job.
  • Print support for macOS is very fragile as we depend on HP driver on VDA, explicitly signed by Microsoft. This is a limitation for compatibility with macOS.
  • On VDA 'HP LaserJet PS 2800 (Microsoft)' drivers signed by Microsoft is mandatorily required for client printer redirection on macOS.
  • macOS default: https://www.howtogeek.com/309677/how-to-stop-two-side-printing-from-being-the-default-in-macos/ workaround may be used to change settings in the CUPS daemon.
