After years this important issue is still there...

On debian jessie one can do:
Change
/etc/systemd/system/printer.target.wants/cups.service

from
PrivateTmp=true
to
PrivateTmp=false

I don't really see a necessity for a private tmp anyway ...

****
Apart from the workaround, I would say: why use /tmp for the spool area mount 
points on the server side in the first place? The directories are being owned by 
the respective user anyway.
Why not use the user's home directory under ~/.x2go?
Then this problem would be solved without touching x2goserver-printing nor 
cups-x2go nor the operating system (see the workaround).

Chris

P.S.: My lack of knowledge: why has the printing be divided in cups-x2go and 
x2goserver-printing? Why not one package?
