Use Client Side USB port from Citrix/Terminal Server

citrixterminal-server

Is it possible to use a scanner connected to the client PC via a USB port via Citrix or Terminal Server?

If it is can you provide a pointer to some information on how to set it up. We are using TWAIN to talk to the scanner.

Citrix and TS do not support scanner redirection out of the box.

There are a number of 3rd party utilities that will do this. Another option is to use a "network USB" type device to connect the scanner into the Citrix session.
