Never mind. I found the documentation, and it's working fine. Haven't 
seen it print yet, since I'm out of ink. But it queues the job on the 
local client properly.

X2GO, like FreeNX before it, continues to be absolutely amazing. I have 
~100 business users in 4 offices in 4 cities in 2 states doing all their 
daily office work in X2GO/MATE/Debian, and it just flies over the WAN. I 
just got finished watching (and listening to) Mike Gabriel's talk at 
Debconf on YouTube via X2GO over a 6mbit connection. Impressive.
