[X2go-dev] Windows X2Go printing

[John A. Sullivan III]

Hello, all.  We are trying to finish off the punch list for our first
major X2Go deployment so I expect to be sending lots of smaller issues
to the list.

One not so small issue is a problem with using the X2Go client printing
on Windows stations.  The portability of this solution is magnificent
but we are noticing that the windows client cannot directly print to the
local printers.  Whenever we send a print job from the X2Go server to
the Windows X2Go client (3.0.1-4), the print dialog properly displays.
However, no matter which local printer we choose, whichever application
Windows has associated with PDF files opens instead and displays the PDF
rather than printing it.

Has anyone else seen this behavior? It is 100% reproducible for us.  Why
is this happening? Is there a workaround? We're about to dive into the
code to see what we can find but really don't know what we are looking
at or for so any guidance would be greatly appreciated - John
