I have the same issue with Windows 23H2 and no Citrix. Exact same symptoms. Printers are there but then they just disappear. When the user tries to re-add the printer they can't because it is already installed even though they don't see it. The only way we found to rectify the situation is to

This is usually done remotely with users that have weak skills so it takes a very long time to do.

Thx,
