No kidding.  Thanks for the info everyone.

I'm currenly using VSI Fax and it doesn't work with
Published Apps.  It creates a local printer when
installed on the client and I'm just doing
auto-created printers right now and then they are able
to print to the fax printer which then launches the
app.  I was looking for more of a transparent solution
that wouldn't require anything to be loaded on the
client or started up before hand.
