Hi Greg, Aron,
Both of you are right. I got the first hand experience like Greg, we are
using HP 4050N also. I got it all working as described by Aron, follow the
link and download the updated version of Citrix (v.6.xx). Just make sure
you follow all the steps till the end. I mean the very last step.

I can guide you through if you still have problems.
