Using GoToMyPC for programming work

I have had an inquiry from another filePro programmer (filePro Linux
5.0.9, I believe, on Red Had Enterprise 3.0) who is trying to use GoToMyPC
for some remote programming work. He has setup a remote GoToMyPC Windows
system at his house so that he can attach to his Windows PC at work.
The GoToMyPC remote printer works fine when he wants to print a
report or a form to his local home printer. I'm not sure how he has the
printers setup in filePro; whether he is using printer controls within his
programs or whether he is using an environmental variable to set a printer.
The problem is: Whenever he prints a program listing, the printout
always goes to the main printer attached to his Linux system. I believe
when he hardcopies a screen or report that he is changing, the print also
goes to the Linux main printer, and not to his home.
I seem to recall that there was an environmental variable that could
be set to redirect just the programming printouts to a different printer,
but I've searched my notes and can't find it.
Otherwise, I've not worked with GoToMyPC myself. If there are any
of you who worked with this product, I'd like to know if you encountered the
same thing.
Thanks!
