How to Automatically Connect a Reader to a Citrix Environment? 

My pcProx reader is not recognized as using Citrix XenDesktop. 

Citrix does support USB port redirection, however in order for Citrix to redirect a USB device, the device’s Vendor ID (VID) as well as other parameters will need to be identified. 

Step 1: 
Identify the pcProx® descriptor. 
The VID for the pcProx reader will be:

VID - 0C27

PID - 3BFA

Step 2: 
Verify that there is a registry entry on the local machine that the USB device is plugged into and a Citrix policy with the correct Class/PID. 

Visit the below link to be taken to the Citrix Generic USB Redirection Configuration Guide. The guide provides the details for the redirection of a USB device in a Citrix environment: https://support.citrix.com/s/article/CTX692981-usb-support-in-xenappxendesktop-server-products?language=en_US
