I'm having problems printing remotely using x2goserver-printing + cups-x2go. I've enabled printing on the client side, then connected to my Debian 8 server via X2go. I've installed x2goserver-printing + cups-x2go on the server and restarted cups.
When I try and send a test print from the server to my home printer, it doesn't work. Nothing is in the spool directory. It doesn't seem to ever reach the otherside.
What should I do?

It does work for 5 out of 6 staff members. The one which printing doesn't work is the one where his remote 'spool' directory isn't getting mounted.

In that case, you need to find out why that isn't happening. X2GoClient uses sshfs to mount it, so maybe log in and check if the user has no permissions to start sshfs? Debian 8 is pretty old - in fact, it might be so old that you still need to add the user to the "fuse" group there.
