Printing from the TS is a much better way to go than auto-created
printers... It does add some processing overhead to the TS server and for
heavily used farm, you may want to add a dedicated print server. The other
drawback is the TS/Print Server needs connectivity to the Printer, so piping
the print job over ICA will not work (unless you use a third-party tool)

Mmmmm...that may well be my way to go. I actually have a lot of control
over the IP environment, so am contemplating printing direct from the TS
with a printer set up within the profile rather than on the client
device. Are there any cons to this? Will it work at all?

The WYSE clients can print to an LPR printer. You can setup the
printserver to handle LPR requests.
